According to Garden Tour Chair Alice Calhoun, the gardens on the 2025 Garden Tour are unique: “We have a many new gardens among both the town and country gardens. Town Tour gardens are usually lovely cottage gardens hidden behind historic homes. This year they will include a traditional four-square garden, a native plant, certified wildlife habitat garden, a huge plant collector’s garden and a coffee lover’s retreat. Country Tour estate gardens tend to be much larger than Town Tour gardens and have different elements and features. This year’s gardens include a prairie and pollinator garden, an artist/garden designer’s garden, and a garden with greenhouses, a vegetable garden and more.” Calhoun continues, “To get an overview of the beauty of Hermann’s gardens, visit www.hermanngardentours.com, our website. There you will see gardens that have been on previous tours. And you will be amazed.”
Hermann, named “the most beautiful city in Missouri” and a Missouri DREAM city, has many wineries, over 60 bed and breakfasts inns, many antique and specialty shops, and galleries. And there are excellent eateries. Plan to spend the night and spread the tour over both days.
Garden Club President Elise Bellefontaine urges local people to support these events since “Funds raised at the Garden Tour are used for civic beautification and scholarships for local students.” She continues, "If you are interested in joining the Club, please contact me through our website.”
