Garden Art

I'm not sure if a garden needs art...


















(A garden is art!)














Though I am happy to find a bench...














...or a chair...














...in any garden.














I saw this swing (which spreads seed as you use it!)...














...and these other art pieces...














... at Reford Gardens (also known as Les Jardins de Métis) near St. Flavie, Quebec ...


















Some are part of the permanent collection.














Others were part of an international garden competition.














For me the test is: Does it add to the pleasure of viewing a garden? Or distract and detract?
