Our garden occupies three acres and it hosts four water gardens as well as a small lake at the back that irrigates the plants in the summer. My husband and I enjoy an orchard with over a hundred fruit trees, mostly apple and a hothouse and vegetable garden. We have over a hundred rhododendrons that bloom profusely in May-June. As well there is a wooden gazebo surrounded by climbing clematis. Nestled among these plants are various other flowers and bushes, some very small such as the Lily of the Valley and large blooming trees such as the Snowball bushes and Magnolias shown below.
