NIAGARA HORTICULTURAL SOCIETY GARDEN TOUR
 

BY BRUCE ZIMMERMAN

The Niagara Horticultural Society held it's Annual Garden Tour. There were eight gardens from the shores of Lake Ontario to downtown Niagara on the Lake. Each garden had it's own personality which in the most part reflected their owners personalities.

These are some of my favourite shots of the gardens. They are just some of the one hundred and thirty pictures I took in just five hours.
