Editor’s Note: The following are bonus photos from a profile of Vivienne and William Young’s garden featured in the June 2020 issue of Michigan Gardener. To read the full story, pick up a copy of Michigan Gardener in stores or see it in our Digital Edition, which you can read for free at MichiganGardener.com.

Found in the barn, this Stroh’s water trough is filled with sedums and a reading gnome—naturally, it is now part of the reading garden.

A beautiful stone arch frames this quaint seating area adjacent to the barn.

An antique stove is covered with pans and drawers full of succulents.

With its green wicker furniture, the gazebo is a relaxing place to pass a lazy afternoon.

What a perfect spot for afternoon tea!
