hint hint.....

OR
Birthday Party!

"I have often thought that if heaven had given me a choice of my position and calling,
it would have been on a rich spot of earth ...
No occupation is so delightful to me as the culture of the earth,
and no culture comparable to that of the garden."
       -Thomas Jefferson, 1811

We enjoyed a wonderful Friday night birthday celebration on the UVA grounds
(Thank you Megan and Robo)
Pavillion X
Reserve.....FREE of Charge
additional gardens are also available

 

One of the largest gardens, Pavilion Garden X is one hundred and fifty feet wide.

The design of the oval lawn with "elephant ears" was based on the gardens in another Jefferson-era book, as well as on Jefferson's ideas for Monticello.
The large hollies remain from an earlier garden.
The Hotel Garden is a collection of tree boxwoods established long before the restorations.

Iron benches are placed around the Kentucky coffee trees in a romantic setting popular in eighteenth-century gardens.

 
Enjoy the beauty of UVA--Grab a date--enjoy the gardens
