Congratulations to the winners current and past of our Good Hope Farms Gorgeous Garden Award!

Current Winner: Kurt and Connie Henry – 512 Woodcrest

I hope the rain didn’t knock off all the flowers on their 3 Kousa dogwoods. I placed the sign last week. However, I still love the shape of their beds, the huge pots, the oakleaf hydrangea and lime leafed spirea (both not in bloom yet but the leaves are great contrast in shape and color to the trees above)

I am so sorry to report this, but the park garden project is postponed until poison ivy is eradicated from the site.

During the park clean-up, we realized this garden needed a lot of attention and time. At that time, the poison ivy was not showing its evil head. On Mother’s Day, Dave and I went down to decide if we should edge or rototill it before the girls got there. Well, the poison ivy is now up and throughout the area, so there is no way I want any child working there. Steve Miskin who is in charge of the park said he will work to get rid of it.

We will have to postpone the project until the poison ivy is under control. I tried to contact those who offered perennials, so you would not dig up your plants. If you already dug your plants and don’t want to put them back in the ground, I can put them in a holding area until we need them.

Thanks and sorry.
