Flagstaff Garden Tours

Garden tours August 20 and September 10. Details below. Native Plant Society tour SUNDAY August 14. We hope you will participate.

Plant sharing: Are you thinning garden plants and relegating these plants to the compost pile? Does that make you sad? Bring your 'extras' to any garden tour to share. And thank you!

Invitations needed: The success of our summer garden tours depends upon YOU. Invite us to visit your garden, or secure an invitation to visit another garden in August or September. email djhockman@npgcable.com with your invitation. Thank you.

Mark your calendars: Sunday, August 14 Native Plant Society's annual garden tour. Watch for details

When: Saturday, August 20, 10 a.m.
What: Visit the garden of Debi Stalvey
Where: 513 W Fir Avenue
Details: Debie writes: I formerly had a front lawn, but have gone to more natives. I am told it seems park like in the front.
Since I have dogs, the back is kind of a free for all, with lots of ivy, vinca and Virginia creeper. It is quite lush despite the challenges. My side yard features two vegetable gardens-mostly tomatoes, but includes pumpkins, potatoes, acorn squash, zucchini, peas and whatever seeds germinate from the compost. We usually have a few unknowns.
Driving Directions: Beaver street north past the hospital all the way to the very last street. Turn left (only way you can go). House is almost at the end on the left. It is a blue house. People should also check out several of my neighbors who have very nice yards.
Debi's phone number is 699-3504

When: Saturday, September 10, 10 a.m.
What: Visit the garden of Gurdarshan and Haring Khalsa
Where: 2976 Pebble Beach Drive
Details: Gurdarshan writes: This garden has been an ongoing "project" for 25 years. It is never finished as all gardeners will understand. We have incorporated rock work in the landscape plan. My style is country rustic with a leaning toward the English garden. I grew up in Seattle and it has been difficult to leave the water loving plants behind. The focus is on flowers as our yard has become more shady over the years.
