Friday Garden: Down the Primrose Path at Winterthur


Susan reporting:

We'll launch the first weekend in June in picturesque style with this photo I took last week in the Quarry Garden at Winterthur Museum, near Wilmington, DE. This garden is one of many on the 1,000-acre estate planned by founder Henry Francis DuPont (1880-1969), who preferred to enhance the  setting -- in this case, a stream running through an abandoned quarry -- with wild flowers and plants to create a natural, informal woodland garden. Enjoy the primroses and primula!
