Kansas City Garden preserves its history.

English Country Charm: These extensive Leawood gardens include a greenhouse, orchard, and potager that will delight. You’ll find it hard to leave the brick patio with its impressive collection of pots and ornamentation. Venture back to the orchard, large vegetable and cutting garden, and greenhouse with a garden boutique for the whole experience.

European Elegance: Step into the back garden of this south Overland Park home. You’ll feel you’ve entered the grounds of a villa surrounded by a berm lushly planted with formally pruned junipers and boxwood, accented with giant urns of stunning plants of begonias and Mandeville. You will not think you are in Kansas anymore.

Kansas Roots: With a retaining wall built of limestone from the foundation of her great-grandparents’ barn and an antique bed frame repurposed as a raised “garden bed,” this garden shows you how a gardener can incorporate personal history into their garden. This Lenexa Garden is charming, creative, and full of clever ideas to add a touch of flare and whimsy.

The Tour of Private Gardens will be held June 17 and 18, 2023, from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. both days. Ticket sales are limited, and $45 helps ensure a pleasant experience. For more information, visit https://www. johnson.k-state.edu/.
