Visit over 39 exquisite display gardens. The gardens are located on an eight acre property in a spectacular mountainous wildlife setting. We specialize in low maintenance and nature-nourishing native plants and hardy succulents such as sedums, and hens and chicks. It truly is a place 'where the wild things grow'. All plantings emphasize nature, wildlife and recycling.
