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.
