Schnormeier Gardens was selected among top ten favorite Gardens in the world! Arthur Frommer's Budget Travel magazine May 2008 issue asked garden experts to recommend their favorite garden from anywhere in the world. That list is as follows:

SCHNORMEIER GARDENS, GAMBIER, OHIO

"The last thing you'd expect in the middle of the Midwest is a Japanese teahouse," says designer Tracy DiSabato-Aust, author of The Well-Designed Mixed Garden. "The garden, owned by entrepreneur Ted Schnormeier and his wife, Ann, offers among many things--except a sense of place." Indeed, the 75-acre garden in central Ohio is a monument to the unexpected. Along with a Chinese pavilion, there's a Japanese zigzag bridge over a pond with Australian black swans. The Schnormeiers also added a waterfall, ten lakes, and dozens of sculptures. The garden is privately owned, and it's open one week a year (in 2010, June 12-13).
