Lead down the Garden Path

This is my side yard Summer of 2000, the following spring after I bough my homestead.

I and my then 6, 5, and 3 year old children landscaped in a raised bed design.

As it looks now- with iris, phlox, lilac, purple cornflower, strawberries, tulips, Shasta daisies, roses, mints, yarrow, an occasionally eggplants. The a good many of my plants were traded, or acquired by either gleaning in nature (hike in the woods) or scouting out gardens in abandoned homes that were soon to be demolished.
