850 Hope St
Better known as Mrs. Perry's garden. The existing gardens were developed on what was part of the Bosworth/Perry home, built in 1680 it is the first home in Bristol, Rhode Island.
The gardens have many native species of perennials and specimen trees. The plants were chosen for their hardiness, colors, and ease of maintenance. Over a two-year period (2007-2008) the gardens were updated, and many more plants added to create a multi-season color display. The plants were also chosen for their Xeric properties (no supplemental watering is needed once established).
