Saratoga Springs is colorful not only culturally and historically; but also literally. Come spring and summer the historic resort town is filled with lush plantings in the public parks; around private homes from the grandest to the most modest; at the Saratoga Race Course grounds and the Skidmore College campus; and even throughout the business district along Broadway. Rather than discouraging Saratogas green thumbs; the challenging northern climate only inspires residents to celebrate the return of warm weather and the horse-racing season each year with joyful displays of gardens; fountains; and flower-filled containers of every description."History; health; and horses;" the citys motto; neatly sums up Saratogas most famous attributes. In this celebration of the regions gardens and the people who create them; photographer and writer Janet Loughrey shows us that "horticulture" should be added to that list.
