The House on US Grant Place

6/6/06 Our yard is truly spectacular.  We have lot of photos but these are the very best

Here's a lovely iron arch in our backyard.  This shot was taken in the winter when we moved in.  We didn't know what the vines were, but they turned out to be a dark maroon clematis (below) and a purple flowering tomato.

The second set of photos at the bottom is a marvelous exotic surprise we got this week.  It is a single Dracunculus vulgaris also known as dragon arum.  It is supposed to smell horrible (like rotting meat) but ours doesn't.  It's about 4 feet tall
