Description
English: The French Garden — one of the former Indoor Display Gardens at Duke Gardens, in New Jersey.
History
  • Duke Gardens featured eleven distinct designs inspired by diverse cultures and regions of the world, created and maintained in elaborate greenhouses. Italian, Colonial, Edwardian, French, English, Chinese, Japanese, and Indo-Persian designs were juxtaposed near desert, tropical, and semi-tropical greenhouse environments.
  • In 1958, Doris Duke began a six-year process of designing and creating the display gardens. She traveled the globe seeking specimens and ideas to complete the gardens, which she first opened to the public in 1964.
  • On May 25, 2008, the Indoor Display Gardens were closed indefinitely by the Trustees of the Doris Duke Charitable Foundation.
