Parker travel guide

The back view of their unique water feature at The Sprucery’s entrance to nursery.

I love the entryway into this nursery. I took several photos but this had the best view; so unique. Water runs through it and indigenous plant life abounds...

Great photo op it's almost a must especially during a storm. Miles of green prairies also just hop the fence don't worry there aren't any "No Trespassing" signs. #troversunite
