More Gardens Featured in the Walk were:

Paulette and Joseph Gillman Nicole Ct Auburn, MI A very colorful setting in every season with a large variety of perennials, shrubs and trees. The hydrangeas, boxwood, hostas and lavender are interlaced with cedars, pines, grasses and ground covers. Among the variety of trees are tri colored beech, ginko, weeping Japanese pines, maples and larch. With its' woodland background and water fountain, the secluded back yard is a haven for orioles, grosbeaks and other birds that return every Spring to nest. ============================================================

Carol and John Speltz Wilder Road Bay City, MI 48706 "Follow a path through a charming gated rock wall and wind your way to the perennial gardens in the backyard. Imagine yourself soaking in the claw foot tub garden. Check out the grilling/potting shed. Find a fallen tree turned into a living arch. Enjoy foxglove, roses, iris, herbs and art in this sanctuary setting. Discover "wild hills", a former barn site where lilies, grasses and other beautiful plant life live on the wild side." =============================================================
