OUR GARDENS

The Hodges Rose Garden
The rose garden is currently being renovated with an emphasis on low maintenance roses, particularly Earth Kind Roses. The roses should be in full bloom by 2012.

Perennial Gardens
The perennial gardens around the Interpretive Center have been planted with many spring bulbs and irises as well as summer blooming hibiscuses, roses, and crape myrtles. Also in this area is a water feature, gazebo, and beautiful picnic area under the shade of a large pecan tree.

Sensory Garden
The Sensory Garden features a different bed for each of the five senses: sight, sound, smell, touch, and taste.

Wildflower Garden
The Wildflower Garden is planted with a wide variety of spring flowers, such as poppies, larkspur, and hollyhocks.

Memorial Gardens
There are several Memorial Gardens throughout the park with an abundance of blooms and interesting architecture (Roberta Davis Arbor, the Ed Jarman Garden, and a variety of memorial trees).

The Rose Garden and the Tea Terrace are available for rental. Reservations can be made through the Garden and Arts Center at 806.767.3724.
