Winnipeg In Bloom Join Prairie Public Television for the premiere of Winnipeg in Bloom–a tour of 24 gardens ranging in size from an acre on the Assiniboine River to vest-pocket gardens on small West End lots that spill out on to the city's boulevards. See gardens from every area of Winnipeg–from St Boniface to St James; from North Kildonan to Fort Garry. Producer, writer and narrator George Siamandas explores the gardens and the passions that drive these gardeners. A diverse lot, Winnipeg's ardent gardeners have grown miracle paradises throughout the city—from formal restrained designs to the casual cottage gardens that peek through picket fences. Also included in Winnipeg in Bloom is a tour of the English Gardens and views of several commercial landscapes. Filming of the documentary was graced by beautiful weather all summer with gardens at their peak. Filmed in high definition format, Winnipeg in Bloom will recall the brilliant colour of summer even on the gloomiest days.
