A GW Garden to Follow, Part 2

Guercio GardenThe Buffalo News has been following the progress of the garden of Jennifer & Jim Guercio, as they head crashingly toward their deadline of maximum gardenosity, Garden Walk Buffalo. The News' three part series is actually following the work being done to the home they own and rent out. It's just about behind their own home, on a different street. Part one of the series can be found here.

The complete article and a short video can be found here. What's great about this particular "installment" is the instruction Jennifer gives for laying patio bricks in a short video. She demonstrates how to set bricks in place with "gloves, a trowel, a mallet, strong knees, strong back and a Celebrex at night."

Jennifer and Jim have one of the most popular gardens on Garden Walk. Their grand Victorian home has a grand Victorian garden that's been highlighted in local and national magazines.

Better Homes & Gardens has photographed the front yard to be used in an issue in the future (see here). Garden Ideas & Outdoor Living has photographed their back yard to be used in an upcoming issue (see here). The garden is featured in Buffalo marketing materials for the Convention & Visitors Bureau, The Garden Walk book and little slices of it have even been spotted, uncredited, in Garden Gate magazine.


The Buffalo News
has even filmed a little video that can be seen on their website, Jennifer makes for a good "teacher" and shows how easy it is to lay a brick patio for almost anyone.
