The Longests have precious few feet of space in which to plant, but
they've taken advantage of every inch of dirt. Robust perennials fill a
raised bed in the alley by their fence, an L-shaped patio garden, a sunken
well garden on a balustrade deck, a secret "pit" garden, an outdoor
"room," window boxes, the front yard and the city's sidewalk tree beds,
which George has extended to soften the streetside hardscaping.
Longest doesn't consider himself out of space just yet. "I would love to
have an old-fashioned, late 19thcentury roof garden with wrought-iron
columns, trees," he said.
The Longests have spent 40 years in the home, which is featured on
Thursday's Historic Garden Week Richmond tour. The city's annual tours
begin Tuesday in Windsor Farms, continue Wednesday in Church Hill and
conclude Thursday with a "West Avenue Plus Two" walking tour from 10 a.m.
to 4:30 p.m.
Longest, a retired English professor at Virginia Commonwealth University
and the author of a biography on noted Richmond garden designer Charles
Gillette, said he gets a lot of pleasure out of "digging and creating.
<snip>
He strives for a Charleston look, with a little Richmond and Mediterranean
thrown in -- "an international little postage-stamp garden." He also
emphasizes architectural accuracy, from the restored 100-year-old shutters
to the period-authentic door locks.
