MY GARDEN

WELCOME to GORDON'S GARDEN OF EDEN

A Woodland Wonderland.
These pictures are from 20 years ago...
some plants haven't made it...but its the memories
that matter to me now!

Hostas, Ferns, and Climbing Plants
Thru the years gardens change.  Deer feast and plants die.
These photos are early years, however some plants remain.

Local TV reports Backyard Weather in Garden
The Gordon Garden's "15 minutes of Fame" 
in 2005 Local Weatherman, Mike Davis and Channel 10 TV
held a contest for a "Backyard Weather Broadcast"
I emailed photos and my garden was selected.

Beautiful Blooms
A favorite spot in the garden
just grows bigger and more beautiful each year!

Faerie Gardens Were a Magical Placce
Garden Faeries come at dawn
Bless the flowers then they're gone.

I made the hypertufa troughs and many of the
mushrooms peeking thru the plants. 
Mini hostas fill the fairie landscapes

  1. You have fairy gardens! I just acquired some pieces to build one in the window well for my daughter so when she's home from college, she won't have a yucky hole-in-the-back-of-the-cave basement room. Need to get the well capped first, though.

  4. Gorgeous Gordon Gardens! With Mike Davis there, that must mean you are in the Columbus area! I'm a neighbor to the SE (60 miles) in Hocking County:)

  6. Your garden is breathtaking. Mine is close, but have a few more years to establish itself. Clematis is one of my favorites. (Oh, who am I kidding I love them all!). Hydrangea don't do we'll in our zone, but oh I wish they did. Thanks for following my blog. :)
