The gardens are blooming at Juniper Village at Forest Hills thanks to the warm, sunny weather and the caring hands of our residents and some local volunteers. This past spring Frank R. Larry P and Rose Mary J. local Forest Hills area residents and volunteers from the Pittsburgh Men's Garden Club shared their time and horticultural expertise to plant gladiola bulbs, petunias and hostas in the gardens in the front flag area and the front porch circle area. Thanks to the warm weather and the nurturing efforts of our residents the gardens are blooming with a beautiful medley of flowers and flowering bushes. Juniper Village invites all of our family members, guests and friends to stop by, relax on the front porch and enjoy the beauty of our gardens.
