Carefully landscaped terraces and peaceful garden paths, festooned with perennial flowers stand before you. It could be a painting, if it wasn't for the movement of the flowers in a gentle breeze, or the songs of the birds in the trees. This garden, hacked out of a rocky, bramble covered hillside, stands as a testament to Elva Hawken's skill as a gardener. Choosing plants and flowers that compliment each other, as well as planning the garden to provide a season long sequence of colorful blooms, takes the competence of a gardener, and the eye of an artist.
| Elva has nurtured her love for gardening, and, over the years, has accumulated a store of knowledge about perennials, their care, and cultivation. This knowledge allows her to place the plants in the correct setting for it's own needs, ensure there is always something in bloom through out the season, and to contribute to the overall aesthetics of the garden. |
