General:
Located on the shores of the Chesapeake Bay near Annapolis, Holly Beach Farm was the home of the Labrot family, originally from Louisiana, and active in horseracing circles. The Labrots purchased the property around 1900, and in 1907 built a Georgian-style mansion designed by architect Douglas H. Thomas, Jr. The extensive grounds were landscaped with expansive lawns and garden borders that stretched down to the bayshore. Unique features included a pergola and gazebo done in a rustic work style. The house, which has recently been restored, was sold by the family in 1994, while much of the land was transferred to the State of Maryland in 1944 to create Sandy Point State Park. A more recent land transfer has protected 300 additional acres, which are now under the aegis of the Chesapeake Bay Foundation. Most of the images in this collection were taken by Thomas W. Sears around 1914, shortly after the gardens were first developed. It is likely that Sears was the landscape architect responsible for designing this job.
Persons associated with the property include Mr. and Mrs. Sylvester Labrot (former owners (ca. 1900-1930); Mr. and Mrs. William H. Labrot (former owners, ca. 1930-1950); Douglas H. Thomas, Jr. (architect, 1907); and Thomas W. Sears (landscape architect, 1914).

Scope and Contents:
The folder includes worksheets, photocopies of articles and books concerning the house and property's colonial history, and an article and write-up of the current garden's history.
General:
Reed Creek Farm is a historic property comprised of 190 acres with an 18th century Colonial mansion site located on Maryland's Eastern Shore. The walled garden, designed by former owner Marcia R. Simmons along with landscape architect Barbara Paca (ASLA), complements the style of the house and was inspired by the gardens at Hadspen, an 18th century country estate in England. The color scheme emphasizes apricot and periwinkle flowers using plant material appropriate to the location. A tall brick wall and gates designed by Philip Logan protect the garden from strong winds off the Chesapeake Bay and keep animals out. Work was started in 2000 by defining geometric flower beds that are connected by goosefoot paths. The beds are planted in perennial and annual flowers, including lilies, lavender, crocosmia, scabiosa, hibiscus, peonies and roses. Flowers and flowering shrubs are planted densely in the beds to create an English cottage garden effect and to reduce the intrusion of weeds.
The walled garden extends from one side of the main house and two formal kitchen gardens hedged with boxwood sit in front of the house. A folly outside the walled garden was built from soil that was removed to install French drains, and was planted with lavender and poppies along a winding path that leads to a curved bench at the summit. The view from the folly includes Chesapeake Bay and the agricultural fields and orchards that comprise the rest of the property.
Former owner and garden designer Marcia R. Simmons (d. 2006) was interred in the garden wall. The garden is being maintained in her memory.
Landscape designer Barbara Paca owns the design firm Preservation Green; architect Philip Logan works at the firm.
Persons associated with the garden include Solomon Wright (1655-1717, patented and surveyed land, 1685); Colonel Thomas Wright (builder of house, circa 1775); members of the Wright family (former owners, 1685 -1960); Bradford Smith family (former owners, 1960-1996); Marcia and Raymond Simmons (former owners, 1996-2004); Barbara Paca, PhD., ASLA (landscape architect, 1999-present); Philip Logan (designer of wall and gate, 1999-2000); Marcia R. Simmons (garden designer, 1999-2006); Jeff Beall (caretaker of garden, 1986-present).

This five-acre American cottage garden wraps around an old farmhouse and combines old-fashioned perennials with some modern cultivars. Informal and idiosyncratic, a hornbeam hedge defines a garden room behind the house. A pocket herb garden is around the corner. Roses are everywhere, while a recent addition is a wall garden. The vegetable garden is also another key component of the design as is the outdoor living area complete with living room, dining room, and summer kitchen.
Persons associated with the garden include: Eugene and Bella Martin (former owners, 1955-1965); William and Catherine Schmersser (former owners, 1965-1982); Meade Palmer (landscape architect); Paul Faulkner "Chip" Callaway (landscape architect); Pam Jessup (architect, 1992); Sandra Youssef Clinton (landscape architect) and Whitney Stewart (interior designer).

General:
Wye Plantation was originally the farm and summer home of William Paca, twice governor of Maryland and a signer of the Declaration of Independence. The gardens were designed for Paca by Luke O'Dio, an English landscape architect, in the 1780s. After years of neglect the property was purchased by Arthur A. Houghton, Jr., in late 1937. Restoration of the gardens began in 1938 under the direction of Arthur Shurcliff (Shurtleff) of Boston and was continued after his death in 1957 by Richard K. Webel of the firm Innocenti & Webel of New York. With the exception of two terraces placed to the west of the original gardens all of the terraces are original. Of the original plantings all but three European lindens and two large English yew trees have disappeared. The original house was razed in 1970 and a new house built on the same site in 1972. In 1979 the property was donated to the Aspen Institute for Humanistic Studies.
Persons associated with the garden include: William Paca (former owner, before 1799); Luke O'Dio (landscape architect, 1780s); Arthur A. Houghton, Jr. (former owner, 1937-1979); Arthur A. Shurcliff (Shurtleff) (landscape architect, 1938-1957); and Richard K. Webel (landscape architect, after 1957).

General:
Landgon Farm, located on Harris Creek on the Eastern Shore of Maryland comprises approximately 175 acres, 80 of which are cultivated cropland. The landscape at Langdon Farm is noted for its extensive English boxwood garden planted in the 1920s. Six foot tall boxwood hedges form a series of garden rooms, each furnished for a distinct purpose--the main room as a cutting and vegetable garden; a secondary space as a traditional herbaceous garden. The entire landscape has undergone an extensive renovation that began in 1994. The water side of the Georgian Revival house is delineated by an elegant greensward and simple turf path that stretches from the base of the two-story portico. The rose garden, originally laid out in the 1920s is bordered by a mature American holly hedges. The elliptical parterre and associated terraces that form this garden are an extension of the guest wing on the house. Secluded within the gardens is a swimming pool surrounded by walkways and terraces constructed from brick taken from the steps of Constitution Hall in Philadelphia during an urban renewal project.
Persons associated with the garden and property include: Richard Bridges (original grant, 1659); Daniel Lambdin (former owner, 1739); James Seth (former owner, 1810); Charles W. Miller (former owner, 1967- ); Scott Wallace (former owner, 1983-1993); Gary Crain (garden designer, 1993-present); Charles Stick (landscape architect, 1994-present); Christopher Johnson (horticulturist and head gardener, 1994-present); and Christopher Kusske (landscape architect for perennial garden, 2000).

The slide was made in 1983 and was taken of an earlier image, probably a photographic print produced sometime between 1914 and 1925. Although Pickering Studio [Edgar H. Pickering of Annapolis] is indicated on the slide mount as the photographer, the image is identical to the original glass plate negative in the Archives of American Gardens' Thomas Warren Sears Collection (MD086011), taken in 1914. The Pickering Studio may have prepared a print from the Sears negative.
