Our Take

Connie Hansen's legacy garden is a lush, volunteer-tended woodland oasis planted over decades with rhododendrons, hostas, and rare shade perennials that feel worlds away from the coast crowds. The score reflects a genuinely special place that still flies under the radar — worth seeking out if you love thoughtfully cultivated green spaces.
