Yard of the Month
The June Yard of the Month has been awarded to 6417 Drury, home of Connie & Bill Koehler. Their yard has been admired for many years for the beautiful roses lining the sidewalk. Since rosetta damaged most of the roses, Connie relaced them with a variety of plants this year. The result is a beautiful splash of color leading to the front porch. This includes lambs ear, baby gem boxwoods, dwarf crepe myrtle, dwarf juniper, geraniums and daisies. You must drive by – you will be inspired! Connie & Bill, along with their neighbors, Richard, Miranda, Eli & Madison Miller, have extended their talent for beautiful gardens to Berney Park. They have adopted the large bed on the west end of the park and are working diligently to weed & revitalize that area of the park. Many thanks to Connie, Bill and all our neighbors who work so hard to keep Ridglea North a beautiful place to live. Contact Una Bailey if you would like to make a nomination for Yard of the Month. |
