“My grandfather, William, must have had considerable training in horticulture and landscape design. In the plans of the cemetery, there are good sketches and layouts of plantings. Also, my father told me that he and other young men had learned the botanical names of many of the bedding and ornamental plants from our grandfather (William). He was also skilled at grafting shrubs and trees. ”- Graham Treggett
