Walter Flory Memorial Iris Collection
More than one hundred irises put on a colorful display at the beginning of May and some make a second show in October. You will find native, dwarf, and reblooming iris in this incredible and unique collection.
The Quarters Gardens
Gardens immediately around the Quarters building highlight Virginia natives, a tribute to Blandy's volunteers, and unique nonnative plants suitable for our area. Due to its southern exposure and protection from wind, the courtyard garden of the Quarters contains some plants that do not survive our winters.
