About
When we moved here in 2015, the property was a blank slate. Since then, we have added 7,000 square feet of perennial border, in a mixture of sun and shade.
Our sunny borders are filled with classic cottage garden plants and many natives. While there’s a playful exuberance, the color palette within each season is relatively limited—creating a sense of harmony and continuity as you explore the property.
The two woodland gardens are lush, with towering actaeas and tiny primroses and everything in between. The garden crescendos in the fall as mums, asters, sedums, and more explode alongside scores of ornamental grasses and shrubs— just as their foliage begins to take on exciting hues.
Welcome to Swampfield!
This garden's estimated size is 7,000 sq ft.
