Throughout most of the summer but especially in the spring, if you climb up above the Children's Garden you might be lucky enough to spot some of Montana's most amazing wildflowers from crocus, and buttercups to sugar bowls and pussy toes. While you are up there, sit a while on the observation deck and let the breeze blow your cares away.
Prickley Pear Creek:
Tizer Gardens is truly blessed with Prickly Pear Creek, which meanders through the middle of the property. That in itself creates magic! It provides water for the plants and birds, habitat for the fish and frogs, fun for the kids, and solitude and serenity for the grownups. Explore the living tool shed and all the great spots just to sit and take it all in.
The Children's Garden:
Supervised by 6 blooming upside down trees, you can see gnomes racing on ladybugs and hear the fairies giggling as they tend their miniature gardens. Always a delight for young and old.
