The sun is shining and the weather is sweet! Another beautiful week at The A.M. Cuddy Gardens in Strathroy. At the beginning of the week we were lucky enough to have excellent transplant weather. Humidity, warmth, and rain makes for happy plants. As the eventful days came to an end, the grey clouds cleared up and the sun put on a happy face.

A view in the direction of the Alpine Garden complemented by a Dogwood,

 lush with blooms!

The Alpine Garden welcomes its newest member (Boxwood)!

This specimen has minute, densely clustered green foliage. No bigger than a bowling ball, this plant certanily is an eye-catcher. 

Allow Perennial Garden to take your breath away!

This week offers sights and smells that are second to none. The Peonies and Clematis are showing off their rich, bright colours to lucky unlookers.

Rosa Glauca is one thorny devil! Its glaucous foliage and pink blooms are sure to attact the birds and the bees but keep your distance or it will bite.

The week ended with a garden tour for the Stratford Horticulture Society. The oohs and ahhs from the group were seemingly endless. These avid gardeners and plant lovers kindly and gently reminded me of my good fortune of working in such a beautiful setting. I most certainly agree!
