The St. Louis Water Garden Society (SLWGS) is celebrating 32 years as a society sharing information about fish, ponds, and gardens. This year is the Society\u2019s 22nd annual water garden and pond tour, 2022 Pond-O-Rama, will be Saturday, June 25 and Sunday, June 26 from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. each day. The 2022 tour will feature 30 private gardens owned and maintained by Society members.
\nTickets covering both days of the tour are $15 each (18 and older) and will be available at local retail shops and garden centers throughout the metropolitan area or on our website. A special 2022 Discount: Groups of 10 or more are only $10 each. The gardens are located throughout the St. Louis metropolitan area. This self-guided tour is arranged each day by geographic location. Even during this pandemic our members have been outside gardening and making their spaces quite spectacular.
\nLast year the water features were \u201cover the top\u201d and many of our members were new on Pond-O-Rama and excited to share their new ponds and waterfalls. This year those beautiful ponds and streams will be on tour. There is so much to learn from each of our hosts about their gardens, water plants, koi fish, goldfish, design, water features, and landscaping.
\nMany members are master gardeners, and many water gardens have been featured in St. Louis Homes and Lifestyles Magazine and local newspapers and magazines.
\nThis event, each year, is the only time many of our St. Louis Water Garden Society members\u2014as a group\u2014open their gardens to the public.
\nIn addition to their water features, most of our hosts are avid gardeners who maintain beautiful landscapes filled with perennials, annuals and shrubs.
\nOur hosts will be available and delighted to share information and answer questions about their gardens, their water features, their fish, and their beautiful plants.
\nIf you are thinking of adding water to your own garden\u2014or you can simply just enjoy the beautiful landscapes and a weekend filled with beauty\u2014this is the tour for you!
\nThis event provides funds for the St Louis Water Garden Society to continue their civic project to plant and maintain the reflecting pools at the Jewel Box in Forest Park.
\nThe tour ticket booklet provides location addresses, descriptions and driving directions. For more information on where to purchase tickets or by mail order from the Society\u2019s website in May, www.slwgs.org, and at many of our retailers and garden centers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
