The Gardens
Intimacy of scale and carefully cultivated serendipity
Renowned Garden Destination
Wave Hill's 28 acres of gardens and woodland are acclaimed for plantsmanship, aesthetic sensibility and the human experience of nature.
"Visitors to Wave Hill first see a beautiful garden, then, layer by layer, begin to understand the complexity." — Ken Druse, garden writer and photographer
Seasonal Highlights
"The different areas of the garden, each an original composition in its own right, have become emblems of American gardening, yet all are undergoing continual redevelopment." — Tom Christopher
Marco Polo Stufano Conservatory
