What We Added--Since 1996
The Anderson Garden Home Page
We came in 1996. Since then, we have expanded sections created by my father and added now ones.
We planted many additional companion shrubs and trees, put in a native garden, dug two ponds, and created a bamboo forest.
Windfall and Rhododendron Wood Benches
I built 65 benches from rhododendron wood and fallen trees. Like everything else, they had a lifetime and now they are gone.
For a time, we had an herb garden, but most of those plants have now been replaced with azaleas.
Garden Paths
With rhododendrons reaching over 25 feet and trees exceeding 100, we developed a set of soft surface interior paths to complement the gravel walkways.
Over the years, we have grown a variety of vegetables. As we get older, it is now mostly tomatoes and garlic.
We have replaced or added berries and several dozen fruit trees.
