There is nothing I love more than a beautiful garden, filled with beautiful flowers and herbs, statues, fountains and stones. This garden was built on the beach in Nantucket, presenting problems that are associated with sand and salt water.
Susan and Coleman Burke dug a seven foot deep trench and built a wall to separate the sea and its spray from the lush garden. The Burkes then filled in the garden with soil and gravel, planting lavatera, butterfly bushes, poppies, roses and Russian sage. ENJOY!
