One of the thousands of daylilies at the Gardens.
New additions to the Wister Gardens family.... Six white ducks.. Duck & Duck are in the foreground of the photo.. Not too keen on the new company.
The sun was setting last Friday evening as I took this photo of the entrance to the Gardens.
More daylillies over by the lake area.
One of my favorite places to go.. The gazebo..
Another day off work before heading back again on Thursday and I spent the day at Wister Gardens. I am the secretary / web page "master" for the Gardens. I wish I could spend every day there. It is such a wonderful place to go to relax and feel like you are getting away from the world. Who would have dreamed that there could be an "oasis" such as this in the middle of the Delta? Well, the answer to that would be Mr. Wister Henry and his wife, Mrs. Frances Chiles Henry. You must go visit the website"hint" and sign the guestbook "HINT" to give us your opinion of what you think of the Gardens. Lynn really does a fantastic job keeping the place up and pours her heart and soul into it. You only have to try and keep up with her ONE day there and you'll see what I mean.
Today, Mr. Norman Winter "Southern Gardening" TV show host was there with a film crew to put together footage of the Gardens. I'm so excited that thousands of people will get a glimpse at the Gardens thru the eyes of the camera lens. Lynn has really brought the place into the spotlight with all her hard work. Next week, Farm Bureau magazine will be there to also do a photo shoot. Then on the 22nd, Mississippi magazine will be there to take photos for their 2010 March /April issue which will feature the Gardens. As I said, I'm so excited that others will find be able to learn about the Gardens and come visit. I'm posting a few photos that were taken recently of the daylillies, new additions to the Gardens (ducks), and Mr. Winter with crew filming. Hopefully I can also add some photos that were taken around sunset last Friday. Enjoy taking a peek at the Gardens with the photos.
