Phillip took a vacation day on Friday and we went to the mountains. We found this delightful place in Lake Lure, the Lake Lure Flowering Bridge. When a new bridge was built, the community got together and turned the old bridge into a garden. It was a wonderful place to explore, exactly the kind of garden I'd plant if I had the expertise and creativity. We couldn't figure out how we didn't notice this when we were there in March for Laura's wedding. When we read the literature, we realized that it wasn't planted until April so the plantings are very recent.
Notice the mirror in this picture.
This planter was in the tropical garden. It's made from an old tire cut and painted to look like a parrot.
Every garden had its own "gardener," characters made of pumpkins and gourds.
This guy was our favorite.
This one is for Lilly, who loves fairies. I doubt if this kind of fairy has visited her fairy garden at home, but she seems happy in her Lake Lure fairy garden.
