Rock Garden

April - November

This dramatic oasis is home to thousands of alpine flowers, woodland plants, and a sparkling waterfall.

It's easy to see why this has been described as one of the most beautiful public rock gardens in the world. A dramatic 2.5-acre oasis, it offers plenty of surprises to those unfamiliar with rock gardens--for while there are rocks aplenty, the real treasures of this garden are its thousands of jewel-like alpine flowers, its graceful woodland plants, and its sparkling waterfall and stream flowing to a flower-rimmed pond. Different seasons offer different delights, from a kaleidoscopic display of autumn colors to an explosion of glorious spring flowers drawn from the mountainous regions of all seven continents.
