Gorgeous, even on a rainy, fall day! It takes quite a bit of walking to see everything.

Beautiful garden with walking trails. Roses are still amazing. Jack-o'-lantern arches are currently in place. This garden is immaculately maintained.

The value of the visit is in the butterfly sanctuary and the Rose garden, where there are 30 to 40 different varieties of roses.

Thanks! Your review is awaiting moderation.

Crys Good | Oct 3, 2019

Yes, the gardens are wheelchair-accessible, however the terrain IS uneven, with lots of ups & downs. It will definitely be a workout for the one pushing the wheelchair! But it's SO worth it-the gardens are lovely!

is this place dog friendly,?

Abhijeet Shrivastava | Sep 11, 2022
will kenderdine | Sep 11, 2022

No, it’s a people-only place. The only exception I can think of would be a service dog. Meaning, if you have a disability and the dog you bring with you is a proper, trained service dog, then I imagine they would permit that.

Can you buy tickets at the door during mothers day weekend ? Do they ever sell out ?

Nikki Russo | Oct 3, 2019

Yes you can get tickets upon entry. They only let so many people in the butterfly room at a time, so the line could be slightly longer on that weekend. However it seems to move fairly quickly.
