You can enjoy the Meditation Retreat’s naturalized woodland garden- AND the sublime beauty of Springtime at Ananda- at the Crystal Hermitage. Thousands of tulips mix with other colorful Spring flowers and blossoming trees, in a terraced setting with lovely views of forested hills as a backdrop.
“We planted over 90 varieties of mid and late season Dutch bulbs this year,” said lead Gardener, Nancy Mair. “We blend tulips with a rainbow of complementary pansies, wisteria, rhododendrons, azaleas, peonies, dogwood trees and the fabulous cherry tree, so that guests enjoy a different garden in each terrace.”
The Garden Getaway gives you one admission to the Crystal Hermitage gardens with each reservation Sunday night through Wednesday night, April 10-April 30. Gardens are open from 10am-5pm.
