A Chester County Farmhouse

On the grounds of an 1880 Chester County home, the ruins of an old barn enclose a private garden.  Things grow well here because it was a working farm and the soil is very rich (7 foot tall lilies!). Wisteria, hydrangea and trumpet vines climb the walls; yew topiaries, holly and box hedges provide structure in winter. Spring brings primroses and bulbs, hosta, phlox and lilies thrive in summer, and lobelia, allium and hardy begonia are autumn stars.
