If you're heading to the Berkshires this summer, plan a visit to the Berkshire Botanical Garden in Stockbridge, MA for an all summer long exhibition on garden ornament. From June 9 through August 31st, the garden is featuring a major exhibition "Garden Ornament: Completing the Picture."
Garden ornaments -- urns, fountains, statuary, and the like -- will be placed throughout the garden's perennial beds, walkways, parterres, specialty gardens and borders to illustrate creative ways to enhance any outdoor space. The show is curated by Tracey Young, owner of The Elemental Garden in Woodbury, CT. Pieces to be put on display range from the classical and formal to the whimsical and rustic.
Berkshire's executive director John Parker said the theme was selected "because of the popularity of the garden ornament trend and also to show how each of us can creatively enhance our gardens."
The Berkshire Botanical Garden displays over 3000 species on its 15-acre site.
