It did not disappoint and they had the most diverse amount of different varieties of daffodils I had ever seen which was amazing. We walked the lovely grounds and were happy the outdoor sculptures were still here. Then we went into the house. They have a wonderful audio tour you get with your phone which we enjoyed. I loved how the majority of the furniture in the house is original. They have plenty of parking a cute gift shop. It was just a great day. I do want to come back to have tea here. So glad I finally visited.

Artist and gardener Robert Dash has created an edenic garden that seems to defy the distribution of…read morespace. The Madoo Conservancy presents a microcosm that flows along walking paths through different aspects of the 2-acre plot of land, all the while focusing on the plant life that Dash has cultivated since the garden's conception in 1967. Dash's garden presents a fundamental attitude -- plants are the dominating forms, structures are secondary. Madoo is a space ever changing, with seasons, new plantings, and repainting of outdoor furniture and structures to reflect the magnificent horticulture that thrives here. The garden is open every Wednesday and Saturday from the beginning of May until the end of September, from 1:00pm to 5:00pm. Admission is $10.00, which fee is used for the garden maintenance. Photographs are permitted; strollers, dogs, children under the age of 6 are not. Separate tours may be arranged for groups of 10 or more.

I was so glad I found out about the Madoo Conservancy as it was the perfect activity for our last day in the area. It was peaceful, lush and full of little surprises. We found little areas here and there along the path. I loved all the pops of color throughout the garden. I would love to return. If you are in the area, this is a must visit.

Everything was post-bloom, and to be honest, I expected that, so no big deal. It's a lot more…read morewooded than I thought; there are some areas that break off, but it's hard to tell if they're officially part of the Gardens or just normal wood stuff. I went down a few of them; some led to things, others just led to an empty opening or dead end, maybe because it's post-bloom? Small parking lot, only about 6-8 spaces, and there wasn't any staff visible, so you couldn't really ask any questions. Muddy when I was there, so bring appropriate shoes. Now all that said its, free (donations accepted). So I'm not going to complain about something that was free that I did get some satisfaction out of, even if I wasn't fully satisfied.

I heard that the…read moregiant magnolia trees were in bloom from a vender at the West Tisbury Farmers Market and so I decided to take a visit to see them for myself. They were absolutely beautiful and so were so many other specimens. We had an added bonus of seeing sculptures and paintings throughout the gardens. Entry was only $5 per adult which was a bargain. They also have a gift shop and plants for sale. This is a worthwhile place to visit on Marthas Vineyard. Check out their calendar as they have many programs for adults and children to enjoy from educational activities to Walking tours and painting classes.

The music and wonderful art made it a really lovely evening. The cafeteria and bar were also serving and had a good selection.

Best of all, relax in the beautiful flowers to enjoy life's small pleasures.
