News: Help Solve A Garden Mystery - The Smithsonian’s Archives of American Gardens

Ellsworth Garden, unknown location, 1993

Do you love gardens and the thrill of the hunt? The Garden Club of America Collection at the Smithsonian’s Archives of American Gardens has images of numerous gardens across the United States that need a bit of sleuthing to be positively identified. Some images belonged to slide lectures that were dismantled over time or simply never were labelled. Regardless of how it happened, they are a mystery! If this garden looks familiar to you, let us know by contacting the GCA Archives at aag@si.edu.
