Images from the Colonial Era Garden at the William Trent House

Exterior photo of the Trent House looking east through the branches of a flowering tulip magnolia in the foreground. The tree is located near the carriage house visitor center which is not depicted. Close up of the yellow tansy flower - a lacey cluster of tiny flowerets often used as an insect repellant. Close up of a small pale, almost colorless, butterfly landing on a tiny lavender flower. Close up of an heirloom 'nutmeg' melon showing its richly patterned outer skin juxtaposed with the green foliage and yellow flower of the nutmeg melon plant. Close up of the large dark burgundy leaves of the bull's blood beet. Close up of a group of cranberry beans, probably named for the cranberry color veining which dominates the appearance of this pale cream string bean. A close up of a group of four dried French beans. The color is almost sage green with stripes of cream and the beans are shaped rather like okra.
