Garden Feature: The Washingtons

These are some photos taken of Mr. and Mrs. Washington's plantsthey are growing in their backyard. They shared them on Facebook, so I asked if I could share them with you guys. They also note how Lemon Grass plants are a natural mosquito deterrent and the wedding favor plant will be updated when it flowers. The yard featured here is in Hillside, New Jersey. Such beautiful plants.
