Spring Featured Gardens
We are honored that these Knoxville residents have opened their properties to the public as a part of our annual celebration of East Tennessee's natural beauty! Each garden is unique in design and offers a variety of plant material and special features. This event is free though a $5 donation per garden is suggested.
Tours are self-guided; although Dogwood Arts staff and volunteers will be on-site for questions. No tickets or pre-registration is required.
​
Parking: There is limited parking at each garden, and guests will be admitted on a first-come-first-served basis. Comfortable or hiking shoes are recommended.
​
No pets allowed (these are private residences, and several residents have pets of their own that we do not want to disturb - thank you for your understanding!).

VIRTUAL GARDEN TOURS:
PRODUCED BY POP FIZZ BRAND PRODUCTIONS
​
Since many people weren't able to travel to Knoxville last spring, we partnered with Pop Fizz Brand Productions to bring our Gardens to YOU! The videos below are intimate looks into two Open Gardens along the Historic Dogwood Trails in Knoxville, TN. Specially selected by the Open Gardens Committee, these exceptional gardens are works of art to be shown off during the peak blooming season in April.
LAKEMOOR HILLS DOGWOOD TRAIL
This Open Garden has sweeping views of the Tennessee River and was lovingly cultivated by longtime Dogwood Arts Volunteers and Trails Committee Members Ann & Dick Graf.
FARRAGUT DOGWOOD TRAIL
Enjoy this intimate look at the magnificent woodland garden that owners Michael & Mary Bates have been cultivating for over 25 years.
