Room of the Week 3.09.10

Posted on 09 March 2010

A Southern-style courtyard garden is charming us this week, enticing us to get outside and share a cup of tea in the dining terrace with owner Jeanne Spencer, gardener extraordinaire with deep ties to the Little Rock gardening and garden club communities.

Inspired by the courtyards in her favorite Southern cities, Jeanne turned a bare backyard into this lush space, learning gardening and garden design along the way. You can read the full story in this month’s Outdoor Living issue, where Jeanne’s garden graces the cover.

Have you created a garden or a garden room at your house? If so, enter our Arkansas’ Best design contest, and your place might be a cover story too. We’d love to see it.
