    August Garden of the Month – Inloes Park

    August 15, 2025
    Congratulations to both the City of Oxford, Ohio Administration Service Department and Des Fleurs Inloes Committee for being chosen as our August Garden of the Month. Inloes Park is located at the corner of Locust and High Street and we have partnered with the city at this location since 1979. It is truly a partnership and we can’t thank Steve Olm and his crew enough for taking out 2 truck loads of the overgrown hillside. They are great to work with and when you see them, please thank them. We sure do. Congratulations to both the City and our very own Inloes committee!

    Field Trip to Spring Grove Cemetery

    July 15, 2024

    In July, the Des Fleurs Garden Club toured the lovely Herb Garden at Spring Grove
    Cemetery and Arboretum. The Herb Society of Greater Cincinnati designed and created
    this garden, which included kitchen herbs, medicinal herbs, and native herbs. Then the
    Des Fleurs Club took a tram ride tour of the cemetery and saw unusual trees like a 400-
    year-old White Oak, a 350-year-old Chinquapin Oak, a 300-year-old Burr Oak, a
    Weeping Beech, a Korean Pine, an American Holly, a Wildfire Black Gum, and a
    Nordmann Fir. The trees were amazing and beautiful, and the grounds were well-kept.
