Reiman Gardens concluded its fourth growing season this year, and as the gardens continue to develop in beauty, so does their popularity. The Town and Country Garden will portray suburban, urban and rural settings. It also will inform visitors about paving techniques, pools, small fountains, furniture, fences and other landscaping features.
Landscape architects are in the early stages of planning the new garden.
Plans call for bids to be opened in May, with a ground-breaking in June. Construction will be completed in late 1999. The garden is the newest development at the Reiman Gardens. The facility includes rose, herb, fragrance and campanile gardens. Construction on a children's garden began this fall, and a dedication is scheduled next summer.
