Garden Tour 070123

Posted by Lisa or Li on

I went with a group of ladies on a garden tour of 6 gardens in an 8 mile radius. So much to see, so many gardening ideas, and lots of gardening wisdom to learn from these ladies. We had lunch along the way.

      You’re welcome, Melissa. It was supposed to rain today and we were lucky the forecast was wrong. It was a good time.

      They look like parks but they were individual home owners’ yards. Cannot even imagine how much $$ invested in some of them, for example the one with the large rock-lined stream and waterfall. Thank you and glad you like the photos, Christian :)

      Gia, a picture can’t do them justice. The guy said they were there when he moved in and that they’ve never been touched by pruning shears.
