Fellows Riverside Gardens is a free public garden located in Youngstown, Ohio's Mill Creek Park. It covers 12 acres, and includes an assortment of gardens. It is probably best known for its variety of roses. Three of its gardens are dedicated to roses: The Formal Rose Garden, Climbing Rose Allee, and the Rose Garden Terrace. If you wish to see these gardens in full bloom, the best time to go is in June.
Other gardens include the Blue Garden, the shade garden, and the perenial border walk.
If you visit the gardens in the spring, you'll absolutely love all of the spring flowers. The grounds are planted with 40,000 spring bulbs. You'll see crocus, tulips, narcissus, and other colorful blooms.
The gardens are open year-round from dawn to dusk.
Just missed the best season then! Although it sounds like spring would be a wash of colors as well.
ReplyDeleteSpring is certainly a beautiful time to visit the gardens!
Deletesounds lovely. When roses are peaking, it's tough to beat gardens featuring them. The aromas can be overwhelming too.
ReplyDeleteRoses are my favorite flowers. I love the scent of them!
DeleteHi Sherry,
ReplyDeleteShame to have missed the spring there. Still, what beautiful surroundings. And yesterday, Monday, I spent a wonderful, sunny afternoon at a place nearby named Trentham Gardens.
