This past August the inaugural Grand Garden Show was held on Mackinac Island. It featured expert gardening presentations, private garden tours, and cocktail celebrations. Proven Winners flower company and the Grand Hotel sponsored the event. Was it because of the tour or the extraordinary climate of the island that the gardens this August looked particularly gorgeous? Tawny’s grandmother is a master gardener and Chief always remembers to compliment her gardens. But in Book Two – one character’s reaction exposes his true personality.
West Bluff Garden
This West Bluff home is built in the Steamboat Style.
Dazzling Display!
On the author’s deck in the UP.
This is located right near the hummingbird feeder.
And, this weekend, the female, who is dominating the feeder and fighting off all interlopers,
decided it was easier to guard it from the nearby flowers. See her?
This and the next shot were taken through a screened window.
She loved sitting on that tender tendril, even in the wind!
