Darts Hill was the home and garden of Edwin and Francisca Darts , and they donate it to the city in 1994 so that now everyone is welcome to visit and enjoy the beautiful garden .
These are thestepsto the principal house , and it is utterly beautiful !
The fallenrhododendronflowers and their curving stems make this a magical quad .
The rhododendron flower confetti is lovely against the woodland storey .
I gasped at the sight of these pinkish fawn lilies(Erythronium revolutum , Zones 6–8 ) . From what I understand , this is a turgid naturalized settlement that handle theslopeand a honorable part of bed 9 . It was a sight so dear that Mrs. Darts had the way of life lasso off every spring to leave them to blossom undisturbed .
