Buffalo Garden Walk: alley gardens

A gardener with only a tiny space in which to garden wastes none of it. That's certainly true of the gardeners of Buffalo's quaint Cottage District who will open their gardens to the public July 24-25 during the annual Garden Walk.

Seeing these alleys, I felt deprived because I don't have one to plant!

Oh yes, I feel deprived, too, that I don't have a space like that to plant. It's challenging, but done well, can be stunning.

Makes you want to move. Right, Carol?

About Susan Reimer

Susan Reimer has spent 16 years writing about raising kids - among other topics - in her column for The Baltimore Sun. And every time son Joseph or daughter Jessie passed another milestone - driver's license, college, wedding or a move to a new military duty station - she has planted another garden. Now she will be writing about those gardens - and yours - here on Garden Variety.

Susan isn't an expert gardener, but she wasn't an expert mother, either. Both - the kids and the gardens - seem to be doing well in spite of her.

She lives in Annapolis with her husband, Gary Mihoces, who loves to cut his grass but has noticed that there seems to be less of it every time the kids pass another milestone.
