ARTiculture. A few more gardens

pfs-2014-articulture-268
It’s another day so time to continue the stroll though a few more of the many, many creative gardens and installations at ARTiculture. At ten acres of delightful displays there’s a lot of ground to cover. Past the biggest, glitziest entries, the smaller efforts, in space but not in dedication and talent, are often put on by amateur groups, colleges, and even High Schools, doing their creative best. These are not amateur efforts by any means.

On the other side of the fence, Subaru of America has been a major sponsor of the Flower Show. I‘m impressed that they put together such a meaningful display around the new hybrid parked on their lot. And also that the inside of their garage is as filled with stuff as most people’s garages are. The garage is even more than it seems, as well. Everything was recycled from the destruction left behind by Hurricane Sandy. Go Subaru Gardens!
