The 2006 Spring in Guadalupe Gardens was a brilliant success, though the weather could have been better.  Thousands of people filled Spring Street to purchase rose, vegetable and decorative plants, get garden advice, listen to live music, and enjoy great food.  The children's area delighted young families with a number of great activities that educated as well as entertained.
