Garden by the River
Lexington Park, MD
About
Spring of 2011 my wife Saraha and I inherited the garden by the river from my aunt Mildred. Mildred could be found working in her garden daily. She shared her plants with neighbors and friends as well as decorating the church she attended with the flowers from her garden.
Saraha and I try to manage what aunt Mildred started. We have added things to the garden over the years and always seem to be moving plants around to find the perfect location. We too enjoy sharing our garden with our neighbors, family, and friends. Our garden is most beautiful in the late evening when you can enjoy the river breeze and catch a glimpse of the setting sun.
