Hidden backyard garden

Welcome!  To my delight I was invited to take a tour of a hidden backyard garden from a member of our local garden club.  She and her husband have constructed this garden over the last seven years.  I might add she is a young 75 year old and definitely puts me to shame!
Isn’t this adorable?  It was donated to our club from Jon Carloftis a famous New York rooftop designer.  He’s actually from here in KY.  For those of you who are unfamiliar with him and his work you can go here.

The cuttings for this arrangement was made from her garden.

She and her husband picked up rocks from various places and roadsides to add to the garden.
