Members of Master Gardeners of Northern Virginia have developed and maintained five demonstration gardens in Arlington and Alexandria, VA. In each of these gardens, the community can see first hand the types of plants that grow well in our area. Some plants may even surprise you! You can also learn recommended planting practices, and overall garden care. Visitors can also simply stop by for a while, and enjoy each garden’s unique beauty.
The gardens contain a large variety of plants. Old favorites grow alongside new experimental varieties. Volunteers maintain the gardens throughout the year using the practices and techniques learned in the VCE Master Gardener training program and monthly continuing education programs. If you see a work party in progress, stop by and talk to our volunteers. They’ll be pleased to show you the gardens and answer your questions.
