Courthouse garden has blossomed and more improvements planned

If you’re a gardener, you know it’s an ever-changing thing. Some plants make it, some don’t. Some grow a little bigger or slower than expected, and they need to be moved. At the courthouse, we have made, and are in the process of making, many changes. First, you’ll notice many of our border plants are disappearing.
