Early spring brings narcissus, daffodils, crocus, and tulips.
Fox gloves, fuschias, fever few, marguerites, and columbine offer continuous enjoyment through spring and summer. The Gingerbread Mansion's gardens are an example of late Victorian gardens, encompassing French formal, English formal, and English informal. Beaded topiary mimics the highly ornate beaded fretwork of the mansion's exterior. Serendipitous brick paths meander between tightly trimmed English box woods, leading visitors to secret corners revealing classical statuary, or hedged privets as focal points. Spectacular fall color abound with Liquid Ambers, Japanese Maples Cosmos and other fall perennials.
