Highlights of this year’s tour ... All six gardens are different with a variety of vistas, plantings, and personalities. One offers plants that have nearly reached the century mark; another has vegetables and flowers planted side-by-side in colors that will delight the eye. Lunch will be served at a garden that was once a horse pasture and is now a virtual bower of plantings. One of our gardens abuts conservation land with azaleas, forsythia, and flowering trees enhancing the property and pool area. Yet another will entice you with delightful ”garden rooms” with architectural elements, colorful plantings, a stone fountain, and more.

PLEASE NOTE: The gardens are not suitable for strollers or wheelchairs. Pets are not allowed in the gardens.
Please wear comfortable footwear! Tour is held rain or shine.

Live music will be performed in the gardens by professional musicians associated with the Orchestra of Indian Hill and Indian Hill Music School, as well as outstanding students. Music schedule is available on the day of the tour.
