Liberty Hall Historic Site and Gardens is located in Frankfort, Kentucky. The gardens cover nearly three acres and are on the grounds of a Federalist-style mansion. (There are a lot of these types of mansions in Kentucky!)
It features the largest formal boxwood garden in Kentucky. It also has many beautiful perennial and annual borders, and a large variety of roses.
The house is currently closed to the public, but it will reopen on March 15, 2013. The gardens are free and open to the public from dawn to dusk. Tour prices to view the house will be $4.00 for adults and $1.00 for children.
Wow! Looks so beautiful! If only I could visit!
ReplyDeleteMaybe someday you will!
DeleteI wonder if they do weddings there?
ReplyDeleteThat's pretty cheap!
ReplyDeleteYes. It's nice when you don't have to spend a lot of money to see something like this.
DeleteWhat a great place for a family outing!
ReplyDeleteEspecially for people who like gardens.
DeleteWow! That's beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI really like the roses.
DeleteThat is the vacation home of my dreams! All I need now is a glass of sweet tea and a staff of landscapers to keep it looking that way :D
ReplyDeleteHa! Exactly!
DeleteFrom your last few posts, sounds like you can spend a week in KY just touring gardens. Very nice.
ReplyDeleteYes, there are a lot of gardens in Kentucky! I'm lucky to live so close to them.
DeleteSo uh, what's so special about this house?
ReplyDeleteGood question - I probably should've included it in my post. The house was built by John Brown in 1796. Mr. Brown was very involved in creating the state of Kentucky - he introduced the bill granting its statehood.
Deletereally pretty!
ReplyDeleteI agree.
