GARDEN VISITOR COMMENTS
“Thank you for the loveliest day in the
2007 summer.”
-Helen
Clark, Granville Garden Club, Granville, Ohio –
“After we left your gardens the bus was buzzing with all sorts of comments – the well placed sculptures, the waterfalls, the ponds, the tea house, and the variety of plants! It was difficult for us to believe that your gardens are so new! And, we all laughed about saving thousands of dollars by visiting your gardens – now, we won’t have to travel to Asia to see such wonderful gardens!”
“I pride myself on being familiar with a
wide genre of plants, but I have to say that I saw many plants for the first
time in your gardens. Even some of the more common plants were artfully placed,
or trimmed in a deliberate manner that made them seem exotic and unusual. Very
tastefully designed and presented.”
-Mary
C. Maloney, Outreach & Development, The Chadwick Arboretum & Learning Gardens,
The Ohio State University, Columbus, Ohio –
“I came across heaven. Frank Lloyd
Wright is my passion and out of the blue comes a house that reminded me of
Fallingwater, yet Asian. This all took my breath away! How could such beauty
exist a couple of miles away from Wal Mart and the cornfields? The Gardens are
breathtaking!”
-Charlotte
Brennan, Apple Valley, Howard, Ohio –
“As an Air Force wife, I have lived on
three continents and I’ve seen indescribable beauty, but I’ve never felt
that beauty as I did in your place. There’s a difference. I want to thank you
for allowing us there as your last showing of the season.”
-Marge
Alexander, Anderson, South Carolina –
“The Moundbuilder’s Rose Society thank you for guiding us on such an informative tour of your gardens. Walking in the lush grass, seeing rare plantings among huge boulders, hearing the rippling and roaring of the waterfalls, sitting in the Japanese houses, and all the other personal experiences of the day, brought a calm to hectic lives.”
“It is a great memory, shared with
friends who appreciate God’s handiwork and all your efforts to bring
beauty and tranquility to your home. Thanks for sharing with us!”
