Great details of an unusual garden. Love the tennis court garden and the glen-like area of Tree Lilacs with the tall blue green grass... and all the lovely rustic arches and supports... the rock chairs with remote are very clever. Beautiful photos. Well Done! Thanks for sharing.

If the people at Chanticleer saw these photos, they most likely would invite you to be their official photographer. Extremely interesting post, Jean. Thank you.

I didn't see the "remote control" when I was there last summer. How funny! Like you, I'd love to go back to Chanticleer in spring to see the bulbs, or in fall to see the grasses and fall foliage. But high summer was a great time to see it last year, and I'd happily go back in July again.

Hi Jean, thanks for showing us this fabulous garden. Everything about it seems to deserve a post, or book! or its own. You did an outstanding job of touching the high points. I loved the paving, and everything really. I would love a house like the potting shed! :-)

Jean...this garden is wonderful! So many wonderful plantings, even the high sun couldn't obscure their beauty! I love the gravel garden...(maybe I am preparing myself for the climatic changes that appear to be happening here in Nashville. It's June and in the high 90's!) But they are delightful to me. Let me assure you, that you can easily, (really, if I can, you can) make those arches...Mine are made from fresh honeysuckle bush stems and branches and wire to hold them together. Just wire the bottom to rebar stuck securely into the ground and you have a nice arch. gail

thanks for the tour I really enjoyed it.

Beautiful, Jean! This just shows how many lovely public gardens are out there; I've never heard of this one. I like the gravel garden, too, but I'm also partial to the pond garden. I much prefer them to the "edgier" details shown in your previous post, but touches like the stone couches certainly add some humor here. A great way to spend the afternoon--hope you made it to New York in time for dinner!
