The Gardens of Glenridge Hall

Glenridge Hall is sited on a  high ridge looking west straight down a stretch of the Chattahoochee Valley.   From the main terrace there is a panoramic vista of Kennesaw, Sweat, and Blackjack Mountains.

After years of neglect, the gardens are being restored and replanted. Among the perennials are four types of climbing roses, columbine, yellow, violet, and white bearded iris, wild thyme, sedum, peonies, single, double, and triple orange day lilies, an indefatigable pink sweet pea, St John's wort, several varieties of daffodil, and a whole host of wild flowers.  Even the twenty-six mature hemlocks along the driveway have seeded over a hundred new trees.
