Atwill writes about his garden at a new house on a hill in Santa Fe. There was a necessary sharp cut on the east boundary to make a flat place for the house, and he had stone-fronted terraces built to hold back the tumble. As he planted these with bulbs, perennials, shrub roses, and flowering trees, he wrote poems describing the process. These are tales of both horticultural joy and woe, as well as various poems on other matters that were pressing in at the time.
