Memorial Garden in June
Who lives in this house?
The stunning red bloom is crimson Bee Balm. The Boston Tea Party in 1773 led to a shortage of tea in America, and this plant's leaves were widely used as a substitute for imported tea.
The Japanese Anemone with its sweet pink flowers is getting over the shock of being transplanted. Thank you, Gene B, for bringing it from your garden and planting it. The pictures do not do it justice, and we'll follow it with interest.
We are taking steps to remove invasive honeysuckle. It's quite exciting to imagine what the glade can become.
