Through the Garden Gate
Grab your sun hat and join Perennial Planters Garden Club of Manchester for their biannual garden tour, “Through the Garden Gate.” Visit six beautifully designed private backyard gardens in Manchester, including a secret garden near Case Mountain with a landscaped hillside with stone boulders, seasonal perennials, and a beehive collection. Check out an historic Greek Revival home with a hidden swimming pool, including a stone patio and sweeping gardens with roses and hydrangea. Another charming garden is graced with trellises covered in fragrant heritage roses. On a quiet street, wander around a large part-shade, part-sun perennial garden with an extensive collection of hostas. Also view a vibrant farmhouse herb garden and newly restored flower garden with beautiful stone patios.
