Garden #5  Steve and Linda Yenney
   1603 Chicago Ave. – Savanna

New to the tour this year, Steve and Linda have used the theme of an old Mississippi River bait shack as the backdrop for their pond and patio garden.  While gardening on a city lot provides challenges, the front lawn is enhanced by the addition of several garden beds. All the antiques were acquired from family farmsteads. 

Due to a house expansion, the koi pond has been recreated into a multi-level waterfall.  They’ve combined container plantings of annuals along with the perennials…and an unexpected delight…a hen and chicks plant in full bloom.
