Short Description
  • The spectacular landscapes experienced by Mount Vernon's modern guests were not created by accident. George Washington carefully planned his estate's sweeping lawns, groves of trees, walled gardens, serpentine paths, and scenic views. 
  • Stroll through the upper garden teeming with beautiful flowers and visit the greenhouse that once housed exotic plants. On the bowling green, trace the path 18th-century visitors traveled to the Mansion and learn how the enslaved workers maintained the grounds and greenery. As you move into the lower garden where the estate's produce was grown, you'll pass by trees dating back to Washington's time.
