These beautiful ornamental gardens were first planted in 1923 by Alfred B. and Louise Maclay after they purchased the property for their winter home. The magnificent landscape is a masterpiece of floral architecture, that feature a picturesque brick walkway, a secret garden, a reflection pool, a walled garden and incredible flowering plants.
