The prize for the eighth week of the Almonte & District Horticultural Society’s ‘Yard of the Week’ goes to 243 Merrithew St., Almonte. This garden oasis is an explosion of texture, from the architectural stones that lead your eye around the garden to the native plant selections. While viewing, we were distracted by the number of birds that flew in and about the garden. The colourful bench on the porch would be a perfect spot to sit and enjoy the show.
If you would like to nominate a garden within Mississippi Mills area for ‘Yard of the Week’ send the address to adhsmailbox@gmail.com. Please note that the garden must be visible from a public street or sidewalk.
