The Tustin Garden Club is gearing up for its annual shindig, the 2008 Spring Garden Tour. Scheduled for April 24th, 10:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m., the tour “celebrates creativity of color, design and inspiration.” For $20 (if you buy before April 19th; $25 if after), you have entrance to the grounds of four homes: “a breathtaking historic Lemon Heights estate featuring a formal European garden, a newly landscaped garden with outdoor living in mind, a unique railroad garden and town built to scale and a Mediterranean garden overflowing with roses.”

While you’re checking out these bountiful gardens, do a drive-by of these homes in full bloom and those just budding near the garden tour stops.
