The Master Gardeners took on a project to create a pocket of beauty on the square in Hayesville.
This long-neglected space between buildings was to be transformed into a lovely spot to take a break and smell the flowers.
The first step was to develop a plan. A number of gardeners drew up plans that were submitted to the group for their consideration.
Another important ingredient was a mural for the back wall to be painted by the high school art group. The mural depicts mountains, water, and flowers - all typical of our area.
The landscape plan reflects the ideas of many gardeners and includes fixtures such as a pergola, a screening fence, two trellises, several birdhouses on posts, and three benches (not shown) - all providing the backbone of the plan. Shrubs and perennials are being added as the other elements are installed.
Watch for updates on this project.
