What a great little surprise! I have lived 2 miles from the gardens for 12 years and only visited for the first time last week. I expected a small, mediocre, backyard garden but I was wowed by everything this site has to offer. The staff there is friendly and helpful, identifying flowers for us and sharing the history of the... More

I live within 3 miles of Smith Gilbert Gardens and just finally made it there for a visit last spring. Boy was I surprised! I expected a small garden, etc. but Smith Gilbert Gardens really wowed me! The garden is much larger than I expected and has a beautiful (and peaceful) Japanese waterfall area. I think Smith Gilbert is truly... More

This 13 acre site is an excellent living botanical garden complete with important sculpture pieces and important plant species. The Civil War era home is complete with bullet holes in the wall and serves as a wonderful venue for weddings and events. This is a must see Spring through Fall piece of heaven! More

Go see the roses and many other lovely flowers, trees and shrubs at this garden near Kennesaw in Cobb County, GA. Any time of year would be nice, but spring was just great. Very relaxing and pretty. More

I had the pleasure of spending most of my morning with my daughter's fifth grade class on a fieldtrip. The class is studying flowers and it seemed like the perfect educational match. WHAT A HIDDEN TREASURE! Smith-Gilbert Gardens was stunning. We were there three hours and could have definitely lingered longer. With each area of the gardens, you could actually... More
