Part 1 - The Garden at Stonewall Jackson's Home-Lexington, Virginia
A couple of weeks ago I took a little ride to Lexington, Virginia. Lexington is the home to several interesting attractions and one of my favorite and oft visited spots is Confederate General Thomas Jonathan "Stonewall" Jackson's home . This house is the only one that Jackson ever owned and it is located right in town. The garden is beautiful and I thought you might enjoy some photographs of it. Isn't this clover heavenly? And, the little johnny jump ups peeking out are so precious.

now i know what crimson and clover looks like in that song...wanted to click on your book...looks good but nothing happened. will look it up on amazon. i absolutely love pretty retro and casual tablecloths! will you do one on aprons? seems like the 50's type aprons are back...so pretty.
Need to get out to Lexington, one of these days. Your photos are lovely. Look forward to Part 2.
I agree, that clover field is oh so beautiful, the blossom seem to sway in perfect harmony. The Johnny-Jump-Ups are endearing!
Just the other day was I trying to remember this little viola's name. I photographed one in a Viennese garden.
The clovers are lovely indeed. Together they present a nice shade of colour.
Wonderful photos. I have never been but someday, maybe...
Wow Erin. Just lovely. Your photos are like decadent truffles in a golden box.....tasting them, leaves you wanting more.
I hope you are have a wonderful weekend, my friend.
