Location: In celebration of the Cape Fear Garden Club’s efforts around azalea season, we had the honor of shooting on location of one of the club’s 13 featured gardens on this year’s Azalea Tour. Special thanks to Israel and Dalia Nir for letting us use their garden on Forest Hills Drive as a backdrop. This 1930’s Tudor style brick home has evolved over the years to include a gazebo, outdoor fire pit, multiple patios and secret pathways.
