Condition:
In good condition but needs work. Sumac will soon be cut down. Lilies cover the entire plot and will be removed. One broken stone was found, but will be easy to fix. Other stones need straightening. There is a wood fence around the plot. There are hopes to some day replace it. (updated 8 Nov 2012)
