2016 Trillium Recipients
August 8th
2016
The 2016
Trillium Program has awarded 49 Trilliums to Grimsby’s beautiful front garden
viewable from the street. Gardens
include residential, condos, townhouses, apartment buildings, and
non-residential properties. This is the
first year that our Trillium Program is based on nominations, and it was a
great success. Thanks to our gold and
silver sponsors who made advertising possible for this new approach. There were 110 nominations, 87 nominated
gardens and 49 Trillium recipients.
We have
listed the addresses on our website, blog and in the news media. This will mean
that residents, friends and neighbours can enjoy a self-guided tour of
Grimsby’s prettiest summer gardens.
Here are a few of the gardens...they will be posted on the website by the middle of August.
The recognition
event is Wednesday, September 14th, at 7:30pm at Grimsby Town
Hall. We will be showcasing nominated and
Trillium recipient garden owners and gardens. A social gathering with treats and
coffee/tea etc will be part of the evening.

Grimsby Garden of the Month for August 2016
Garden of the Month - August 2016
The garden of Mr. and Mrs. Peter Forsythe on 18 Nelles Road South is aglow with many colours and textures sure to catch the eye. The basic colour scheme of green and white is highlighted with fuchsia impatiens and pink hydrangeas. What makes it so lovely is the striking red maple tree providing the much-needed shade during this dry, hot summer. The many hostas are tucked in between the burst of tall grasses, and augmented with delightful garden sculptures and interesting rock formations. The Japanese Willow, pruned to form a canopy above the rose barbary, provides a tranquil, shady spot to sit and watch the world go by. Thank you for adding to the natural beauty of Grimsby.
Winning gardens are chosen based on our criteria for curb appeal, colour design, and maintenance. Please visit our website at www.grimsbygardenclub.ca.
