Brookside Gardens
Maryland, United States
Brookside Gardens in Maryland is a 54-acre public display garden located within Wheaton Regional Park in Silver Spring.
Established in 1969 after four years of planning and construction, it was designed by landscape architect Hans Hanses who drew inspiration from European gardens with the goal of creating a space featuring plants that thrive locally and are accessible to regional gardeners.
The garden is divided into various "rooms," including formal gardens, an Azalea Walk, and a wedding gazebo, with later additions such as the Fragrance Garden, Rose Garden, Gude Garden with a Japanese Tea House, Trial Garden for new annuals, and an Aquatic Garden.
The site also includes two conservatories and a multiuse Visitors Center with a library, classrooms, and gift shop. Brookside Gardens hosts seasonal events like butterfly exhibits and holiday light shows, attracting hundreds of thousands of visitors annually. It is renowned for its blend of natural beauty, horticultural education, and community engagement, providing a tranquil and inspiring environment for visitors year-round.
