The Garden Conservancy's Open Day - Ft Worth

Gardens

  1. The Camilleri Garden     10:00 am - 4:00 pm
    2749 6th Avenue
    Fort Worth, TX 76110
    The Camilleri garden was inspired by the beauty of the Mediterranean along with the arid yet lush island of Gozo, the homeowner’s birthplace. The garden reflects the colors and textures of Gozo and incorporates these elements with Texas-friendly perennials. Needing a space to provide fun and entertainment for their three boys, as well as many large family get-togethers, the Camilleris designed the gardens to be both functional and pleasing to the eye by dividing the areas with iron fencing, lattice trellises, and stone pathways. A small vineyard was planted on the north side of the property to provide a hobby for the wine lovers as well as to serve as a reminder of the Old World. A small organic herb and vegetable garden is located just outside
