This is a new satellite of Pennsylvania Garden, located opposite Center Hardware on Mariposa Street at Pennsylvania Avenue (in other words, down the block from P. Garden)
in 2009 I planted sunflowers there. They did OK, considering! In 2010 I decided to plant some really tough perennials and make it look amazing. I recruited Emily and Denise to help, and asked Center Hardware to contribute: they gave us a store credit for supplies!
You will see all the posts related to this project by clicking "Mariposa Center Garden" in the right column's labels field.
If you live nearby and would like to help with weeding, watering and planting, please contact us. We would love your assistance in getting this little project up and running!
