This cool oasis in the middle of town mixes casual and formal perfectly.

Welcome to the Fine Gardening Garden Photo of the Day blog! Every weekday we post a new photo of a great garden, a spectacular plant, a stunning plant combination, or any number of other subjects. Think of it as your morning jolt of green. Sign up to get it in your mailbox, so you'll always remember to take a look. We look forward to sharing our garden travels with you. If you think you have a photo that we should share on the Garden Photo of the day, email us. Send hi-res images to mgervais@taunton.com with GPOD in the subject line. We'll only respond if we plan to use your photo.

arboretum writes: Sighhhhhhhh. This is a most handsome depiction of a true respite.I really admire all the elements which work together to create a cohesive calm , orderly, peaceful experience here.In addition, the talented photographer has framed the shot perfectly to reflect the calm of symmetry but to include many of the built and natural details which make for an interesting visual design.I particularly love the brick filigree panel in the wall of ivy, and the oriental shape of
the pavilion roof. Posted: 12:38 pm on January 6th
