Gardener of the Week
By Lorene Rees
The colorful yard of

The driveway is outlined
with Michaelmas Daisies

cling to the wrought iron
supports in the
carport. There are pretty
hanging baskets of
fantazia under the car-

is a pecan tree and Pom-
egranate bush.
The enclosed attrac-

A Iron wash pot is filled
with succullents. Mich-

and pepper plants. The
