May 1
5th -- 10AM-5PM Don't miss the annual Georgetown Garden Tour, this year featuring eight little masterpieces, including one designed by James van Sweden with an unusual water feature, multi-levels and overlapping rectangles; a small Asian-style garden with teahouse and pond; and (there has to be one!) a traditional G'town garden with lots of boxwood and a pergola. Tickets on the day of the tour at Keith Hall, 31st & O Sts. NW.
May 21st, 1-4PM, head on up to Shepherd Park (straight north on 16th Street) for eight more gardens, several created by local area landscape designers and featured on national tours. They include a romantic "European" garden with a water feature invisible from the street, lush plantings and diverse texture; and a late 19th century English garden with tons of perennials & deer-resistant plants. Tickets available noon at Shepherd Elementary, 16th & Kalmia Sts NW.
The 8 feature masterpiece are great, I love it. I like the landscaped here.
