The homestead had an annex (a small house) which was used occasionally only. It had an old garden and was completely covered with vines, climbing roses and honeysuckles. Natural beauty was
abundant around her house. The Keller homestead was quite near a rose- bower.
Its old fashioned garden was the paradise of her childhood. Before Miss
Sullivan's arrival, this garden was the place where Helen went to find comfort
and hide her hot face in the cool leaves and grass. Helen felt extremely happy
in that garden of flowers, wandering happily from spot to spot. She could
recognize each vine and plant by touching them. The clematis, drooping
Jessamine, butterfly lilies were her constant companions. But she liked the
roses the most. She adored the fragrance of these roses.
