A mysterious traveling carnival has pulled into town. Tent doors flap amidst the dry, swirling autumn wind. The night crackles with an odd vibration, as if a veil of peculiarity has settled over these hallowed grounds. A maelstrom of sights, sounds, smells, and people…
Halloween at Roger's Gardens premiered this week. It's always a fun way to get inspired for the fall season. As
you wander through the beautiful gardens, prepare yourself as you are pulled
from the shadows into the vortex of the Big Top. This isn't your garden-variety nursery
anymore! They have prepared four tents
just for you.
• The Magician’s Tent: Lurking in the
shadows, a world of magic beckons in a color palette of red, white and
black. Spells will be cast with top
hats, rabbits, magic wands, and other props that await your sleight of hand.
• The Fortune Teller’s Tent: In this colorful, gypsy-inspired den you can
connect with the spirits, get lost in the gaze of a crystal ball, and explore
vintage merchandise and Day of the Dead
accessories
• The Medicine Man’s Tent: Pick your
poison. It¹s all here. Conjure up a
frightfully festive mood with the creepy cabinet of curiosities. Loaded with slithering snakes, nibbling rats
and hair-raising spiders, the creepy crawlers will frighten off the most
intrepid visitors.
• The Sideshow Tent: Navigating the twists and turns of our Big
Top may lead you (spirits willing) to the side show, to which no carnival is
ever complete. Be awed by beautifully
adorned masks, gourmet candy, and one-of-a-kind collectibles created by talented
artisans.
Roger's Gardens is just the place to help conjure up inspiration for the dark, haunted
chamber you call home. Enter if you
dare… I hope you will stop by the
Halloween Boutique in person. You won't be sorry!
You know how much I love a great tablescape,
and here are some of my picks from Roger's that would
look great for a spooky Halloween dinner party!
ciao! fabiana
