13 Secret Gardens in America

America is adorned with some beautiful public gardens worth viewing. But if you are in the mood to do a little exploring of gardens less well known, here are 13 secret gardens that open their gates to the public a mere once or twice a year.

1. Stone Acres: Stonington, CT

With over a quarter mile of manicured hedges, this traditional English-style garden is a wonder to walk through. It even boasts a rose arbor, and what has been termed a 'ha ha' - a recessed garden wall that doesn't block views. 
2. Murray Gardens: Glastonbury, CT

Once you've walked pass the stone gate, two private acres of twisting garden paths, sculptures, beds of daylilies, as well as a waterfall surrounded by Japanese maples, and much more await you. 
3. Garden of Barbara Baker: Fort Worth, TX

This garden is inspired by English traditions. It also features sectioned-off rooms, and behind this blue gate (pictured) you will find a butterfly garden. 
4. Garden at Elm Tree: Chicago, IL
