511 Fairview Avenue, Blacksburg
Ann Shawhan
Developed over 30+ years, this eclectic art-filled backyard garden features banana and fig trees, and a large oakleaf hydrangea, along with perennials such as daylilies, peonies, yarrow, iris, hostas, and crocasmia. Interspersed with the shrubs and perennials are spaces for vegetables like chard and kale, raspberries, blueberries, and several varieties of mint. Two colorful buildings house studio space for the owners’ painting, tile work, and sculpture; a third is a meditation/music room. A large rock in the front yard, obtained from a local quarry, provides seating; and trees and other plantings allow for private space on the front porch.
