The Ellipse

A reinterpretation of one of Mrs. Garvan's original landscapes, the Ellipse features a plantation teak bench she designed to enjoy the show on Daffodil Hill from underneath a massive white oak. This timeless example of garden furnishings serves as the focal point of a seasonal color garden presenting pansies and tulips in spring, impatiens and begonias in summer, and chrysanthemums and violas in fall. It also introduces visitors to Mrs. Garvan's original north walk, which leads on to the Victorian shrub borders of White Oak Walkout, winter interest and lake views along Camellia Trail, scenic overlooks to Singing Springs Gorge, and the Wildflower Meadow.
