Yesterday I drove to meet my buddy, Pat and her friend for a garden tour... walking tour that is. However, it really wasn't possible to see all fifteen gardens in the Park Hill area of Denver on foot. The old homes, all brick were of course spectacular, but the gardens were so beautiful. Roses and ground covers, exotics and old world blooms. Shade gardens, water features and veggies planted everywhere. There were artists in several of the gardens displaying and painting flora and fauna. One gardener even had a wine tasting and we were all given a four pack of petunias at one garden. We have a hill in our back yard which is quite steep and I snapped this one picture for inspiration for that area.
We would also like to put a water feature in that area, but don't know if that will happen. We have embarked on a kitchen remodel and although it has started out as a small project, it is our experience that there always are unexpected delays.
More pictures of this project as it progresses.
