A little taste of Fall color in the Elizabethan Gardens. Some of our newest plantings from this spring are starting to come to life! We hope to see everyone soon for 1587 Pumpkins with lots of cool days to walk here between now and October 28. Also! Our Camellias are just starting to open their soft, pink and white petals. Come check out the first blossoms of fall. We have some pretty nice Camellias for sale in the nursery, too.

There are many reasons to honor today’s history- especially on the Outer Banks. As the landing place for our country’s earlier settlers and the location of significant native history, we understand the importance of recognizing the past.

For example, are you familiar with Manteo, the Croatan Native American who is credited with saving the English explorers who founded “The Lost Colony”? This real-life drama has been reenacted for 86 years in The Lost Colony, a musical performed annually on Roanoke Island’s festival park. It’s a summertime must see!
