The Sunken Gardens

Pressed to overflowing with tulips and roses, lily cushions and daisies, palm sprouts and firs, lasting plants and evergreens, the Sunken Garden's place on the rundown of the best 300 gardens in the United States is completely merited. Every year, the keepers here revamp the bloom shows in an alternate subject, diverting genuine inventiveness into the informal lodging episodes of natural science. Guests can walk the pathways and search out any semblance of the Perennial Garden, where hydrangeas meet spruce trees in the shade, or the purported White Garden, enlivened by the flawless greenery and composed yards of Sissinghurst Castle in Kent, England. It's all ideal for getting a breather amidst the city.
