Gold Hill Garden Club

The Gold Hill Garden Club created and installed the beautiful Carolina Fence Garden around our flag pole area.  Both TCES and the TCES PTO partnered to provide the funds needed to bring in top soil for this area, but the TC Gardening Club provided all of the manpower and volunteer hours to bring this project to fruition. 

 

 
A Carolina Fence Garden includes items representing State symbols:

  • Split rail fence was a call from the State to fence in livestock in the late 1800's
  • Yellow Jessamine - State flower
  • Blue Granite - State stone
  • Carolina Wren - State bird
  • Eastern Tiger Swallowtail - State butterfly
  • Carolina Mantis - State insect 
 

The garden has plants and hardscape representing these symbols and other plants to attract butterflies, hummingbirds and pollinators.

Thanks also to:

  • John and Jean McDade - bluebird house
  • Coltharp, Inc. - granite stone and rock
  • Greg Helms - stone for pathway
  • Dale and Liz Sine - sign and installation of fence

 

 

 

Gardening on the Cay
Gardening on the Cay keeps our front planters looking beautiful!  They are also working on a butterfly garden with 2nd grade teacher, Mrs. Rodgers.  See below for the start of the project - 22 plantings.  Now we're just waiting on the benches and plant markers.  Special thanks to Tom Clark Landscaping and Site One.  Stay tuned for more pictures!
