| Coming is a slide show of the 2007 season, which was highlighted in a Calender of Coe Memorial Park. It is our hope that these photographs will apply a sense of "newness" in the act of seeing Coe Memorial Park. This discovery, surprise, learning, revelation and growth about something of "depth" with which we are familiar but haven't paid enough attention to - the Beauty that resides in Nature- and in a Park in the Heart of a small city called Torrington. |

| The Civil War Monument Area: Old Fashioned Ageratum offers the brilliance of its blue blooms to the pink "Felicity" mums, caramel "Heucheras" and the deep rose of the "autumn joy" sedums. In the spring, this area is transformed into an oasis of purple "Passionale" tulips and the brilliant white of "ice follies" cupped narcissi. |
