  Garden of Eden

  By

  Erin McLaughlin

  When it comes to garden breadth, be careful what you wish for. After years of pining for a garden that would allow me an opportunity to really, well, garden, I got exactly that. After a very wet spring and an even hotter start to the summer, my garden is now well under way. This year I'm not going to worry about creating a perfect garden—I'm just content to learn about its foibles and its beauty.
