FEATURED AZALEA GARDEN

Classic statuary looks even better when displayed in an old-fashioned garden. Phyllis Goodsen and Dave Eckles' home in historic downtown Wilmington is the perfect setting for their garden art, which includes the Olympian god, Hermes (above), as well as several representations of the Seasons (originally done as 3 or 4 goddesses, but later creted in a series of four young males as well).

Dave and Phyllis recently added two whippet statues to guard their entrance gate (and to hang out with their lovely pet whippets, Elizabeth and Audrey).

See their other statuary and new Palazzo Urn fountain, as well as lots more beautiful garden art on the 2013 Azalea Garden Tour, April 12-14th. For a real treat, check out the article and photos in April's Wrightsville Beach Magazine. Azalea Tour tickets available for $20 each at Stone Garden, 6955 Market Street.
