Anne Ward Garden

This tiny little garden sits on a knoll overlooking the Cowden Rose Garden. Funding for this garden came in 1989 from Richard Ward as a tribute to his wife Anne.  The tall fescue lawn is a low maintenance type that looks lush while requiring less water than traditional grasses. Four Prunus yedoensis ‘Akebona’, or Daybreak Japanese Flowering Cherry trees are situated on the lawn along with two benches for viewing the rose garden and pond with fountains.
