Golden Gate Magazine CoverGarden Gate doesn't credit the gardener, nor even mention where this garden is. It is unfortunate to not recognize Alec's hard work and for Buffalo's "growing" reputation for its urban garden culture. But hey - you know that all now!

This garden was also featured on a past Garden Gate cover, you can read about that in a blog post here. It also appeared also on the cover of People Places Plants in the spring of 2007.

Garden Gate magazine has a circulation of just over 400,000. The magazine, published by August Home Publishing, is based in Des Moines, IA. The photographer is Garden Gate magazine staff photographer, David McClure.

altPeople Places Plants, published by Paul Tukey, a gardening magazine for the Northeastern U.S. is based in New Gloucester, ME. The photographer for this cover was Buffalo's own Don Zinteck, the Garden Walk "staff" photographer, and photographer of the Garden Walk Buffalo book. Available at a retailer near you (provided you're in Western New York state).

More of Don's garden photos can be found at the Garden Walk Photo Gallery.
