The Sunken Blue Gardens

Sponsored by the Green Court Garden Club

The Blue Garden was originally developed by John Pendleton King, II (Pendleton), the grandson of Senator John Pendleton King. A writer and poet, Pendleton also enjoyed establishing plant material which bloomed in blue.
The garden has been restored with shrubs and flowers that display various hues of blue. The Green Court Garden Club has adopted this special garden and perpetuates King's love for the color blue in the landscape. The formal garden has an ornate urn which is planted with seasonal blue flowers which serves as an attractive focal point.

This Garden can be rented along with the historic red roof gazebo.

The Historic Red Roof Gazebo

The red roof gazebo is one of the historic structures dating back to the original Pendleton King house along with the Blue Garden. This gazebo is now used for weddings and other gatherings.
