Brookside Gardens is considered one of the crown jewels of the Montgomery County park system in Maryland and a popular destination for locals and tourists alike.
Although it’s called Brookside there is actually a large lake surrounded by a variety of green plants and healthy ecosystem. A few ducks swam in the lake freely. Local people come here to exercise, jog, or walk inside the park. The atmosphere is fresh and the environment is green.
Brookside Gardens is a 50-acre public display garden located in Wheaton, Maryland, operated by the Maryland National Capital Park and Planning Commission. It is one of the premier botanic gardens in the state of Maryland. There are a few gardens inside the Brookside Gardens, here are a few gardens I like:
The Aquatic Garden - Features a large pond with water lilies, lotus, and other aquatic plants.
The Azalea Garden - Showcases a variety of azalea cultivars in bloom in the spring.
The Conservatory - Houses tropical and subtropical plants in a greenhouse setting.
The pagoda Garden - Includes a pagoda, bridges, and plantings.
The Rose Garden - Displays over 1,000 roses of 39 varieties.
The Trial Garden - Tests new plant varieties for their suitability in the region.
The gardens also feature several miles of paved and natural surface trails, picnic areas, and event spaces. Based on online reference, they were established in 1969 on land donated by the Corby family.
