Yard of the Month
Bruce and Ginny Peterson
205 Ridgewood Drive.

After moving into Lake Forest in 2000, Ginny promptly became a member of the Lake Forest Garden Club which has helped her with the planning of her awesome yard. 

Bruce and Ginny have had to do extensive work to this yard to make it what it is today.  It has a most inviting atmosphere with the wonderful shaded walkways and vine covered archways.  The tropical garden in the rear of the home is spectacular.  This area gives you such a warm feeling.  This yard will always be a picture of perfection when you pass anytime of the the year.

 Here is a list of flowers that Ginny and Bruce have in their yard:
