5841 Pershing BEN ASEN The apple trees and roses in front alert the passerby that plants in this garden have been lovingly tended by Ben (aided by his granddaughter) for 25 years. Two huge pin oaks and a raised deck provide summer shelter for a huge collection of indoor container plants (Madagascar Palm, Bun-otail, succulents, cactus) and colorful hosta, geraniums, begonias. Note the mini-ecosystem ” worm farm”.
