| Surrounding this historical
house are no less than seven distinct and unique gardens. Each is on a
different level and each is enclosed by walls to contain its special
image. Original architectural structures- the walls, paths, steps and
gates have been carefully retained. The emphasis in planning the
gardens has been to focus on the native Carolina species and on plant
varieties that were available in the 18th century. Classic wooden
benches are placed throughout the garden for rest and contemplation.
