Maybe in small towns there are fewer obstacles?. This all happened in about 2 months (idea to implementation) believe it or not. The steps are pretty amazing, aren't they?<br /> <br />This was a good year. No big events, which made it low key. I did get to plant bulbs this year. Tulips can seem like an extravagance, so every year I try to add snow drops or camassias or glory-in-the -snow; something that the voles won't devour and will return each year.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14771120380247636617noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4067804781629732627.post-27262465606623790152013-11-15T12:42:57.086-08:002013-11-15T12:42:57.086-08:00What a wonderful community collaboration!

I love those old stone steps. <br /><br />I hope you had a wonderful and rewarding gardening season, Michael. It's been very busy for me, and I didn't spend much time in the garden this year. I didn't even plant bulbs :( Look forward to catching up on your posts.

I'm not sure how it compares to the wild west.<br /><br />There are numerous invasive species growing along the river in Teixeira Park and Depot Park. Working to remove them is in my job jar for the next ten years. Taking them from the wall at the Boccelli Garden turned out to be fairly easy.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14771120380247636617noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4067804781629732627.post-71923968564436711632013-11-15T04:50:07.574-08:002013-11-15T04:50:07.574-08:00Many thanks for your kind comment all the way from...Many thanks for your kind comment all the way from Holland!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14771120380247636617noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4067804781629732627.post-8484942307193505022013-11-14T22:00:17.444-08:002013-11-14T22:00:17.444-08:00I agree with you on having all the donations and c...I agree with you on having all the donations and continuance of public garden spaces there. I must wonder if that's a nice peculiarity of New England, compared to, say, the wild west? Definitely there's an appeal to such a place! <br /><br />I also enjoy how such a project includes taking out invasive plants brush...that is so crucial.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4067804781629732627.post-20418835611531179342013-11-14T21:23:35.780-08:002013-11-14T21:23:35.780-08:00Nice photos!
