The Main Garden Fountains in front of the Conservatory are truly a spectacle. First of all, they are huge and with multiple types of fountains rolled into one overarching theme.
Next to the main fountain garden, there is a lovely topiary garden. Your kids will love trying to figure out what the topiaries are supposed to be!
The roses are so whimsical. There is a rose tunnel and your kids will love darting in and out of it, playing hide and go seek!
The BEST time to see the Flower Garden Walk is in the spring (in my opinion). The gardens here are overflowing with tulips, daffodils, and other spring blooms.
This is at the far end of the gardens is almost as large as the Main Garden Fountain. You can view the fountains from a platform at the front of the fountain area.
