2026 GARDEN WALK
The Villa in Golden Hill
Another historic gem in the heart of beautiful Golden Hill. The architectural design of The Villa is based on a 14th century Florentine palace and is the only home of its kind in Golden Hill. Imagine alfresco dining in a European style loggia overlooking a tranquil swimming pool while surveying beautiful and interesting plant material such as mature elephant ears, hydrangeas, hostas, and many varieties of flowers and colorful potted annuals.
Dulcimer Delight
This darling garden is a true gardeners garden. In fact, all of the plant material is from friends, family, and neighbors of the garden owner. The gardener describes her garden as her “happy place,” and the backyard is serene with sounds of wind chimes. You will find the gardener is playing her original song “In My Garden” on her dulcimer. The home was built in 1929 and contains many original stained-glass windows. Plant materials to note include a hyacinth arch, butterfly magnolia, peonies, moon flowers, an original red bud, and many garden vegetable and herb boxes.
Monon Oasis
We are all familiar with the Monon Trail, but this Monon Oasis will be new for all of us. The home was built in 1935 and exudes Forest Hills neighborhood charm. This is another gardener’s garden with plant material and garden art and ornaments that have been collected by the owners over the years. The Zen garden includes a soothing water feature, Japanese Maple trees, and multiple bird feeders. Additionally, there is a darling hand painted potting shed and a hydroponic garden. Plant material includes oak leaf hydrangea, cucumber magnolias, white pine, spruce trees, and many garden and herb boxes.
Newfields
With this garden, we will celebrate the past, engage in the present, and get excited for the future. 30 years ago, the Indianapolis Museum of Art was featured on the first IGC Garden Walk. This year our guests will enjoy a unique and personalized horticultural tour of Newfields and receive a sneak peak into the future of the new Flower and Vegetable Garden, which will recreate a vital piece of the historic Oldfields estate. The garden will feature four-season displays, educational programming, and eventually seasonal produce to support local food pantries and community kitchens. What a perfect pairing for the IGC 30th Annual Garden Walk.
The Crow's Nest
This beautiful garden estate is a true hidden gem in the city. The current home was built between 1902 and 1904 and served as a summer escape from downtown Indianapolis. The property borders the White River and there is a pump house and remnants of an original swimming pool where owners cooled off with water from the river. Guests can tour the beautiful gazebo complete with a fireplace and lounge area that is original to the property. The plant material is bountiful and unique including smoke bushes, magnolia trees, hydrangea, purple beauty berry and much more.
