Trowel and Growl at Lynne Meagher’s Property

Monday, June 30th at 9:30 AM.  

Location: 19 Wellington Dr. Rockport

From Lynn: “I live in the Bay Ridge neighborhood of Rockport on just over 5 acres on a hill with a lovely view of Penobscot Bay.  We have a large grass lawn and several garden beds in front of our home as well as another lawn in the back, with a stone forest path leading to a small pond with a waterfall feature and smaller lily pond. There are many areas I could use help with, but I think we should focus on a shaded elevated garden built on a rocky shelf in the backyard.  It is approximately 20’ x 40’. I suspect at one time it was a beautiful garden but was let go many years ago. There are a few flowers still growing there such as peonies, and lots of lovely mossy patches. Unfortunately it is overgrown with grass and what I suspect are mostly weeds. I just am not familiar enough with Maine plants to know what should be pulled and what should stay. We live in Arizona the other half of the year. We purchased the property in 2016, and this is our fifth full summer here.  I’m really looking forward to this!”
