A glimpse of the garden
The garden has been maintained and added on to for years now and visitors return every season to take in the fragrance and awe inspiring colors of the beautiful plants. There are benches to rest on and even a service ran by Doug Freeland, that will take tired legs on a golf cart ride through the gardens for a minimal fee of $5.00 per person. Benches or memorial stones (in the form of 2' stone wall or plaque) can be purchased to place in the garden in memory of a loved one. The late freezes this spring brought the rhododendrons to their peak just a little later than in previous years but very little damage was done to the plants. One set of visitors stated that they come faithfully every year to the gardens, "Our Church group from Center Baptist in Helen comes every year and we all look forward to it," stated Ruth Johnson. Friend Delores Willard went on to say, "They seem to add something every year." Another visitor form Whales added, "I tended to a garden similar to this for over 25 years and this one is a thing of beauty."
One thing is for sure, Hamilton Garden is a treasure right in the backdoor of our North Georgia Mountains that we should all cherish.
