Garden Tour (Lutherville Timonium, 21093)- Wild Ones Greater Baltimore

Come and see it to appreciate how Mother Nature has done most of the work on this homeowner’s front and back yards!

This property has been acknowledged as winners of the Green Towson Alliance native garden contest 2024, and featured on WMAR2 news recently with the help of Green Towson Alliance.

Featuring a rain garden set up with the help of GVC and University of Maryland, a water feature in the back yard that uses oxygenating plants to maintain organic balance, and a native front yard built and featured on 'Kill Your Lawn' Maryland Chapter on Earth FX - there is a lot to explore on these small (0.3 acre lot) urban native centric yards.

There is a focus on conserving rainwater in woodchip filled lanes that are walkways between native plant rows that sustain the plants and have reduced watering needs by over 80% spring through summer.

Some notable plants include: rattlesnake master, buttonbush, Dutchman's pipe, tall joe-pye weeds, Northern sea oats, blue mist flowers, butterfly weed and swamp milkweed, and many more. 

This is a guided tour beginning at 4pm and lasting for about 2 hours.

Event address at a private residence (Lutherville Timonium, 21093) and additional details will be provided upon registration.

Rain date is Sunday, August 10th at 4pm
