Juneau - the Upside Down Forest of Glacier Gardens
It’s hard to believe that these beautiful gardens became famous because
a man named Steve threw a hissy fit, but that’s exactly what happened.

| The flower towers are made by inverting a spruce or hemlock tree with the “root ball” pointing towards the sky. The tree trunk is buried 5-7 feet into the ground. Then, each year Steve Bowhay personally plants each flower tower with around 75-100 remarkable, colourful, flowering plants. This is garden art at it’s finest! |
