Pond-O-Rama Water Garden Tour 25th Anniversary In 2025 the St. Louis Water Garden Society (SLWGS) celebrates 35 years bringing water garden enthusiasts together for education, community service, and resource sharing. This year the public is invited to enjoy the Society's 25th annual water garden and pond tour, Pond-O-Rama 2025, on Saturday, June 21, and Sunday, June 22, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. The 2025 tour will feature private water gardens owned and maintained by Society members, with each day featuring different gardens. This self-guided tour highlights water gardens located throughout the St. Louis metropolitan area, arranged each day by geographic location, including many new and upgraded gardens, ponds and waterfalls. The full color ticket booklet contains host garden pictures, descriptions of the water features, directions, accessibility, and a QR code to each location. Showcasing a wide variety of water gardens from new to well established, intimate spaces to whole yards, and featuring bridges, gazebos, koi and goldfish, waterfalls, statues, bubblers, and much more, our hosts are eager to share their gardens and expertise with the public. Many hosts are Master Gardeners, Audubon Society (Bring Conservation Home) certified native landscapes, have been featured in St. Louis Homes and Lifestyle magazine, and/or featured in local newspapers and magazines. Whether you are thinking of adding a water feature to your own garden, seeking new gardening ideas, or simply enjoy tranquil landscapes and a weekend filled with beauty—this is the tour for you! Tickets covering both days of the tour are $25 each (18 and older) and will be available beginning in May at local retail shops and garden centers throughout the metropolitan area or on our website (https://slwgs.org). A special 2025 Discount: Groups of 5 or more are only $20 each. Please see the SLWGS website for more information. This year we are highlighting our civic project the planting and maintaining of the elegant and serene lily ponds at the Jewel Box in Forest Park. The St Louis Water Garden Society’s members work weekly from May to October to make the lily ponds gorgeous for the visitors who come to Forest Park. Our civic project is funded by our Pond-O-Rama tour each year.
