The gardens on the MSHS St. Cloud/Sartell Garden Tour this past weekend had wow! factor galore. Tour goers visited seven private gardens plus the Munsinger Gardens and the Viriginia Clemens Rose Garden in the St. Cloud area. A fantastic lunch was served in the garden of Bud and Lorna Nestel, who helped put the tour together. Our sincere thanks to all the volunteers from the St. Cloud Flower and Garden Club who helped direct tour goers. And, of course, we are very grateful to the homeowners who welcomed visitors to their gardens.
The gallery below has a few photos from the tour, but expect to see more on this blog and on our Facebook page over the coming days. There was so much to learn from this tour that we cannot contain it in just one post!
