Bill & Veronica Schiavo—Woodland Garden in Wading River 10-4 Wooded with ponds, streams, waterfalls and 12-15 foot rhododendrons, shade and fern gardens. National Wildlife Federation Certified Wildlife Habitat, the landscape design was developed with serenity, meditation, and harmony in mind. 10-4
May 27 - Head of the Harbor-Alexandra Leighton's Garden in St. James 10-4
Alexandra has 3 acres of gardens, wild and tame. Says landscape designer Alexandra: "When I design gardens for others, I think first in plan, from a bird's eye view. At home I find myself gazing out of upstairs windows to compose the next detail in this tapestry. From above, I enjoy the play of textural clouds of pines and cypress, bursts of Cotinus and dappled willow. I savor the changing of seasons; crepe myrtles rise from behind my yew hedge, drifts of iris and Acanthus play their parts in turn." Her landscape and gardens have just about everything.
May 27 - Two Grey Achres in Old Field 10-4
Designed by the owners, the intensively planted site has rare plants, woodland/shade gardens, and scenic views. A remarkable collection of choice conifers, rhododendrons, azaleas, Japanese maples, and other companions amassed over three decades creates a year-round tapestry of color, texture, and form.
