GOTAMI HOUSE LANDSCAPING TRANSFORMATION

The last big joyous effort on Gotami House was landscaping after all the dirt had been moved and the debris hauled away. The Abbey residents and some of our friends did all the planting. As you can see from the “before” and “after pictures,” the transformation is wonderful.  Over 160 spring bulbs have also been planted, so next year it will be quite lovely. Take a look.


The north slope “before”—with all the mud—


and “after” with the sprouting of new meadow grass.


The retaining wall gets some cultured stone



The garden bed planted with hardy perennials.


The front entryway— “before” with the dirt


and “after” with a new garden.


The sunny west side, “before” ...


... and “after.”


The east sloping hill, “before”


and “after.”


The south side, “before” with dirt and


... “after” as we make a walkway and begin planting.
