Family Garden 2005
I decided last summer to plant a small garden area that would contain
only plants with names from our family. So far I have plants with the
following names there (in no particular order): Pasque, Edith, Victoria,
Lena Ann, Angelina, Jenny, Abigail, Boo, AGM, Kate, Ida, and from the
non-Mosconi side of my family, Uncle Tom (yes, there was an Uncle Tom tulip!)
More will be added as I find them in catalogs.
Joseph's Coat Climbing rose, first day this flower opened |
Same flower second day, hence the name "Joseph's Coat" |

Karley Rose ornamental grass (dad could never remember Carla's middle name, so he always called her Carla Rose.) |
Ida-Maia brodiaea blooming next to Edith Wolford |

Edith Wolford iris (for nonna) |
