Gardens
The Hillwood Museum and Gardens Horticultural Department pursues maintenance, restoration, and research in all areas relating to the formal gardens and the grounds of the estate.
The 4,000 azaleas and numerous interior orchid varieties are the emphasis of the plant
collection. The Museums horticulturists also participate in and organize an active
series of lectures and workshops.
In the future a database system on the gardens will provide the public with more in-depth information on
the horticultural components and statuary of the estate.
Please direct e-mail inquiries to the Director of Horticulture,
or call 202.243.3922 for more information about Hillwood Museums gardens.
