A Mutual Admiration Society by Terri Munson

​Although houses with their large plots of land generate the most flowers grown in Grantham, there are many condos which also boast impressive gardens.  These condo gardens are often cooperative venture among the owners and have the added benefit of being enjoyed by a mutual admiration society. One such co-op garden I have been invited to many times is in Eastman’s West Cove and is the handiwork of the Courtyard Gardening Group led by GGC member Karen North. The group also includes Barb Jones, Cathy Ayres, Sandy and Maynard Wheeler, and Sue Pratt.  According to Barb Jones who gives the other folks most of the credit “I am so blessed to be able to enjoy their amazing work. They have transformed this rock pile.”
 
Another admirer of the garden is an extra long garter snake named Fred. I had a chance encounter with Fred who was camera shy and zipped off before I could get him in focus. Fred does his part to keep pesky critters from eating the flowers.
 
If you go for a walk along The Cove, you will get a glimpse of their delightful gardens. For a closer look, here are some pictures.
