All members of the Canadian Peony Society are encouraged to open their gardens to show off the peonies during the flowering season. Last year, we had members from across the country with Open Gardens. Feedback indicates that those members who invited their local garden club in and/or had a few special open days that they publicized locally were more successful in drawing and welcoming guests. Ideally, it is an opportune time to invite local gardeners to view our special peony collections and to promote the CPS and the peony.
So, in 2014, we will again offer the Open Garden Program and will publish the dates and locations of the gardens in the newsletter. As they say, “Old friends are silver, but new ones are gold”. I encourage anyone who has not opened their garden in the past to consider participating this year.
Please contact me at hplove8@telus.net with any questions about the program and to have your garden listed.
