Lubbock AgriLife Extension Horticulture

The 2026 Hub City Garden Tour is happening on Saturday, June 20, from 9:00 a.m.–1:00 p.m. This self-guided tour features a beautiful collection of gardens across the Lubbock area, offering inspiration for gardeners of every skill, level and style.

Guests will have the opportunity to explore five unique residential gardens, ranging from newly created landscapes to well-established outdoor spaces. Each garden showcases creative planting ideas, landscape inspiration, and decorative touches that you can incorporate into your own home garden.
The tour also includes the continually growing LMGA Demonstration Garden, featuring the new greenhouse and Shade House, as well as the Jo Ann Reinhard Cermin Memorial Butterfly Garden. The Butterfly garden was introduced last year and has had a full year to mature and flourish with newly added perennials this year.

Also, back by popular demand, this year’s tour will feature one of the most popular gardens from the 2025 Garden Tour as a sixth residential stop — giving guests the chance to revisit a beloved garden or experience it for the first time.

Bucket Gardening with MG Becky Miller 🪣
Happening this Monday May 18th at 600pm at Groves Library 5520 19th Street.
Learn how to create a wicking container in a 5-gallon bucket. (Also known as a self-watering container). We will construct one using a pre-made insert available on Amazon, and one using recycled materials. We will talk about how the wicking process works, discuss some examples of what can be grown in these buckets, along with the benefits and downsides of using this method. This ia a great method for people wanting to garden but with limited space.

How's the gardening coming? Proud of your blooms?
