Find ideas for your own garden or simply enjoy the beauty of flowers on either of two garden tours taking place on Saturday, June 23, when gardens are in full glory.
The 15th annual Loveland Garden Tour & Art Show, which benefits Loveland Youth Gardeners, focuses on sustainable yet elegant gardens at The Springs at Mariana in southwest Loveland. Easy to walk, the 8:00 a.m.-2:00 p.m. tour features low-water landscapes, organic veggies as well as flowers and wildlife habitats, plus outdoor living spaces, water features and container plantings. Local artists will have pieces displayed in the gardens and available for sale. A silent auction of art pieces on the theme “Artist’s Choice” will highlight an eclectic array of repurposed, up-cycled, decorated items.
Children under 12 are free; adult tickets, available at https://eventbrite.com/e/2018-loveland-garden-tour-art-show-benefiting-loveland-youth-gardeners-tickets-45202292273, are $15 in advance, $18 the day of the tour.
