The August garden is alive with color, sound and fragrance. This is a great time to take a tour and see the garden at it's best. See how the plants look at their maturity and in various combinations. Make sure to stop by the pond where the waterlilies are at their peak. Darwin is just one of the shining examples with its small, but strikingly beautiful flowers. The kids will enjoy stopping on the bridge to watch the fish swim by and the frogs splashing about. Bees, birds and butterflies are also frequent and welcome visitors to the garden, attracted to the vibrant colors and fragrant flowers. Hydrangeas are also putting on their best show at this time. Annabelle may be the best known variety of Hydrangea, but there are many other varieties to choose from. Most prefer full sun, but there are also some that will tolerate full shade. In addition to the standard white varieties, hydrangeas now come in a wide range of colors, from various shades of pink, lime green, and Endless Summer which can bloom pink or blue. You can learn about all the different types and varieties of Hydrangea at the workshop at 1:00 p.m. each day.
There will be many Special Event Sales and free refreshments will be served both days. |
