Open Day Saturday June 14, 2008
Fogel Garden
12 Waterview Circle, Lansing
Overlooking and sloping toward Cayuga Lake, this garden was begun nine years ago. Conifers, ornamental trees, nut trees and shrubs (many started as saplings) and a meadow border the two acre property. Next to the house are a thyme and flagstone patio, roses and clematis on trellises, shrubs and flowering trees in front of the house, and flowering plants in containers on the rear patio. An herb garden backs up to a rugosa rose garden which is next to a cutting garden. A pergola draped with hops vines and clematis borders the enclosed potage for vegetables and flowers. The long mixed border cottage garden is filled with flowering shrubs, perennials and annuals. A waterfall behind the mixed border leads to the pond and burning pit sitting area which is planted with small trees, grasses and shrubs. The small woods area is in the process of becoming a shade garden. Completing the gardens are a small grape arbor and rock garden.
Directions: From Ithaca, go north on Route 13. Take the exit for Route 34 (East Shore Drive) - drive north on Route 34 for 4.4 miles then turn left onto East Shore Circle. Stay on East Shore Circle for .2 mile, then turn left onto Teeter Road. After .2 mile turn right onto Waterview Circle Road. #12 is on the left. Please park on the street.
Proceeds from this garden will be shared with the Tompkins County Community Beautification Program.
