Homestead garden

Yesterday, a group of us went south of Calgary to near Nanton, to visit the old homestead belonging to Jim Coutts. He is trying to convert his land back to its original, natural grassland, almost literally one little grass "plug" at a time. He has the most amazing garden, including brilliantly coloured flowersbeds and an area that grows a lot of different native grasses. This is just one tiny area of his garden, looking out towards the distant Rocky Mountains. I LOVE Poppies, so I was in seventh heaven!
