Green Animals Topiary Garden

Known For
Sculpted topiary animals roaming a historic Victorian estate
Green Animals Topiary Garden is one of Newport's most genuinely surprising attractions — sculpted animal hedges set against a vintage estate create a moody atmosphere that's equal parts whimsical and eerie. The grounds reward slow, wandering visits more than rushed ones.
🕐Best time to visit: October afternoons when the foliage frames the hedges
Our Take
Green Animals Topiary Garden is one of the most genuinely strange and delightful properties in New England — eighty-plus sculpted animal shapes set against sweeping bay views on a Portsmouth estate that feels frozen in another era. It's worth the short drive from Newport proper, though the experience is more whimsical curiosity than polished destination.
