Garden of Frances Palmer
Weston, CT
Fruit/vegetables, Organic/toxin-free, Rare plants/plant collection
Adjacent to Frances Palmer’s pottery studio is her large cutting garden, supplying myriad blooms from early spring through frost. Frances grows “Alice in Wonderland flowers,” which inspire her ceramics and photography. Her garden is especially known for its dahlias; she plants more than 250 different shapes—from the smallest “pom” to the largest dinner plate varieties. Colors and textures abound; dahlias interweave with tomatoes, zinnias, amaranth, sunflowers, and herbs. September is the height of the garden’s abundance.
