Visiting a city-wide garden tour

Today Barb Mrgich is taking us along on a walking tour of garden .

A couple age ago , a booster and I took a bus trip to visit theBuffalo Garden Walk , in Buffalo , New York .

The Buffalo Garden Walk is often referred to as the best garden tour in America . I concord . There were several thing about it that make it unequalled . First , there are over 400 gardens on video display . They are spread throughout the city , but many are clustered in small , easily walkable sections . secondly , many are contained on small city lots , and some — like this one — are built whole on top of concrete inraised beds . Just amazing !

Some fun garden artistry in the same garden . They had so much in one little backyard , and they certainly did n’t waste any gas mowing this lot !

Most of the gardens were seriously beautiful . This one was severely fun ! Buffalo gardens are know for their whimsical sensation of style .

Garden decorations that are a lilliputian more insidious — these display Buffalo metropolis pride .

I thought the colour of this house fit right in with the base of this garden - crazed urban center ! And there was more fun out back .

Now this is what I call a side porch ! It is overflowing with greenery and bloom of youth , as no space is leave unplanted .

This is just a smattering of the wonderful , creative , and unique approximation the people of the Buffalo Garden Walk have to offer up . If you ever get the chance to go , do n’t overlook it !
