Roses

Climbing roses grow wild in the front and side gardens. Black walnut and pear trees shade the backyard. I dream of re-creating the gardens with heirloom variety flowers and am searching for a photograph or drawing of the original landscape and gardens.

"In his day, it was a beautiful place, with gardens, etc. One of the 'show homes' of the village."*
