Graycliff Landscape Update!

Dear All:

The Graycliff landscape has been changing every single day...as those of you who have been out twice or thrice a week can attest.

If you have not been out recently, you will see MAJOR changes!  This is very exciting for us all.  

Thank you to all docents who have led tours during this exciting time.  It has meant being very flexible in terms of where and how tours have been led....great job, everyone!

We expect the work will wrap up within the next week or so, depending on weather.  The pond will be filled as soon as the liner has cured properly.  It's amazingly large now, and has a special edge for water plants.

We expect the remainder of the driveway will be poured as soon as weather allows.  In the meantime, there is a great deal of planting going on.  Remember to stay off the hay...there are grass seedlings sprouting beneath!

Removing the bridge to the stair tower....

The Tower stands alone!

Boulders in front of pond...

Pond with liner...note dark color and shallow depth, which will  provide wonderful reflections.  Also note ring around the pond for water plants.

  1. "Docented" a tour this morning... This is a must-see time at Graycliff. FLW and the Martins would be proud.
