The gardens in the Main Line continue to astound me. Dodo Hamilton's 10 acre estate is tucked away behind a busy commercial section, you would never know it existed. There are seven full time gardeners who assure the plethora of yew, box and berberis topiaries and hedges are kept immaculately clipped. The greenhouse complex ensures there are fresh flowers daily for the house. Straight axis, great statures, perennial, rose and grass gardens, annuals galore, a fabulous pool and pool house, vegetable and cutting gardens, chicken palace, and touches of whimsy that made the garden very unique.
