Dahlia's - Minter Gardens - #2

 
Continuing yesterday's post about
Minter Gardens, which is set to close
permanently in a few weeks.....
...here are a few photos
of  the Formal Garden,
filled with Dahlia's
 
Years of planning went into the hardscaping
of these gardens.

 
The pink Dahlia's are my favourite.  :  )

    1. I believe for financial reasons, they do not have enough visitors to make it pay,

  3. Love the delicate pastel pink dahlias. I've grown them in containers in Denver.

  4. Thanks for sharing these photos of this beautiful garden in the fall. I was so pleased to visit them in July this year and am sorry it is closing.
