One last look before the snow flies





Less than a mile from our house you can visit the Annual Flower Trial Gardens on the campus of CSU. This 2.9 acre park provides education, research and outreach for the annual flower trials to students, home gardeners, Master Gardeners, community members and green industry personnel. The All-American test gardens evaluate the performance of over one thousand different annual flower cultivars for plant vigor, uniformity, floriferousness and tolerance to environmental and biotic stresses unique to the Rocky Mountain/High Plains region.
It is one of the most beautiful displays I've ever seen.
