Recent photos at Sycamore Hill Gardens. Always something to see, and always difficult to choose what to share. One of our baby red squirrels exploring, or a dew drenched clematis. Why not both!?

Many thanks to Cayuga Tree Service in Elbridge, NY for the great job your crew did this week at Sycamore Hill Gardens! Removing those old, decayed sugar maples along the roadside was way beyond the scope of our equipment, expertise, or capablilites. Your ability to remove trees of any size safely and efficiently is impressive and so is the total cleanup of the area down to the last twig is the sign of true professionalism. Cauga Tree Service remains the #1 and only, tree service on our list!
If they're looking for more work I have a tree trying to push over a garage at one of my tipp hill houses that needs to go.
Are you guys going to open this year ?
This is one of the most beautiful properties in the area!!
Hoping we can visit again this year!
Your property is so lovely.
Snow! lol, guess it's time to put up some fall photos. Drively safely and have a great Monday!
Beautiful!
How much snow?
Can't wait for spring!
Yesterday, Baltimore Woods Nature Center put an unbelievable amount of time and effort into setting everything up in this time of Covid 19, keeping everyone safe so we could open our gardens to the public and fundraise for the Woods. It's something we could never have done without them and we thank the Baltimore Woods; staff and volunteers for their abundance of caution, above and beyond safety measures, and untold hours of hard work!
For all the folks inquiring when we will be open again, we have no regular hours. Sycamore Hill Gardens is our home and we only open for charity events. We don't charge the not for profits; it's just our way of giving back to the CNY community. Without their volunteers for parking, etc. we do not have the resources to open our gardens on a regular basis.
Our sincere thanks to Baltimore Woods for helping so many people enjoy the gardens again this year. And thanks so much to all of you for your interest and your kind words! We trust that 2021 will provide many more opportunities for all of you to visit our home, Sycamore Hill Gardens.
Always a pleasure to share the gardens, so looking forward to next year and many more events!!!
Thank you for opening your property up and supporting CNY! The weather was perfect to enjoy our day there.❤️
You are so generous to open your property for Baltimore Woods. Someday I will see your garden dressed in fall colors. xox
Many thanks for your generosity in sharing your beautiful gardens for the benefit of Baltimore Woods and others. We ourselves certainly benefitted by being there for a few hours of architected nature, quiet, calm and walking.
It was just perfect! Thank you so much!
We appreciate you sharing your wonderful property for these special events.
Thank you! It was a perfect day!

Japanese Anenomes flowering at Sycamore Hill Gardens. These beautiful, but invasive, perennials enjoy shady beds. Growing in height to 3-4 feet they add color and textural contrast to our beds of large hostas. They also work well in flower arrangements, full, leafy stems for height, or cut as single flowers. And, they attract a large variety of pollinators. Carefree!
One of my favorites!
Cropping the Maze at Sycamore Hill Gardens. Yes, first thing every morning our Under Gardener goes out to the Maze with his Red Green Show device to give 2,300 Emerald Green Arborvitae a haircut. After 54 years of marriage, I'm hoping this is not the year he wins the Darwin Award as inevitable as it may seem!
We were fascinated by this process when we were there (after my raffle win). I have a video- my husband and I thought his rigged device was brilliant!
He is so invented. We miss y’all! Our house on the island sold too .
I love the maze. I wish the statue set at the center hadn't been altered to satisfy current trends. I feel grateful to have seen the original on several of my maze visits.
You should give that undergardener guy a raise and the rest of the day off! 😇
Hey, looking good Under-gardener ,
This is awesome, thanks for sharing!!
I need a machine like that.
It Werks
Glad you retired the stilts!!
Bouquet of the Day, Spiderwort, a carefree perennial with blue sky attitude. Enjoy the rain!
Mine bloomed 2 months ago. I do like them.
Invasive! A nightmare to control!!
It looks like my mystery plant. Blue flowers that open in the morning and that close when the sun gets too hot. It doesn't spread it stays where it's planted.
Hope you two,are well. Obviously no trip for us this year. All well here.

When this happens, it's usually because the owner only shared it with a small group of people, changed who can see it or it's been deleted.Sadly, this garden tour has been CANCELLED DUE TO COVID, check back for a possible "virtual" event. Keep cool, be well!
July 25th Garden Tour
CANCELED
Is this open to the public on a regular base or just the certain date above?
The delphinium are beautiful. I've been to the gardens quite a few times. Well worth a trip.
Maybe Kyle can drive us Alyse....??? I'd LOVE to go!
Kathleen Campbell, have you ever been to this place? We should go!
Super news

Purchased multiple tickets for today and sad it cancelled with no refunds or a credit for another event which is weird especially when I purchased 4 tickets. I go for mothers day evey year.
