These are the latest, most up-do-date images of the Mead Cemetery at Cos Cob, located on the eastern side of the Mill Pond.
Most of the images are from the strip of land connecting the cemetery to the terminus of Relay Place, off East Putnam Avenue.
Most all of the foliage here consists of perennials such as black-eyed susans, cone flowers, day lilies, ferns and golden rod -which has not blossomed yet.
This perennial garden is dedicated to the life and legacy of Mrs. Caroline Mill Smith Mead, second wife of William H. Mead. She is acknowledged to be the Town of Greenwich's first woman real estate developer (starting in 1906).
More changes and improvements are in store. For now, with daytime temperatures in the mid-90s, we pause and enjoy what has been accomplished so far.
While visitors are welcomed, all are reminded not to disturb the neighbors. Please do not pick the flowers nor walk dogs here.
