Below are the award winning flower varieties that were planted just off the north western portion of the trails in Tabor Park. If you are walking the trails as of July 2021, it probably just looks like a mound of dirt, and that's because it is. Although, come late fall we are hoping to have a great mixture of the flowers shown below.
