*A Private Tour* of the Formal Gardens at HILDENE, The Lincoln Family Home | Our Cottage Garden

Hello everyone!
Join me for an exclusive epic tour of the stunning formal gardens at Hildene, the historic home of President Abraham Lincoln’s son, Robert Todd Lincoln. From vibrant seasonal blooms to meticulously maintained hedges and pathways, the gardens at Hildene are a living tribute to the elegance and heritage of the Lincoln family.
Find out more about Hildene here: hildene.org/
In this video, Andrea Luchini, Head Horticulturist and Greenhouse Manager, shows us the unique features of Hildene’s formal gardens. If you like history or gardens or both, I hope you enjoy this informative, exclusive tour of easily one of the most beautiful gardens I've ever seen.

Anna, Thanks for taking us along on this stunningly beautiful gardens at Hildene🌷🌺🌹💚💚💚💚💚!!! I have been to New England as a Kid, but never to Vermont. Being that I am interested in nature, gardens, and history this is very interesting to me😃😃!! I had no idea that Abraham Lincoln's son, Robert created this home and that Abraham Lincoln's Granddaughter created this beautiful garden to look like a stained glass window💚💚💚💚💚!!! I so LOVE all the flowers, particularly the North Carolina Dinner plates and purple and white flowers at the end of the video!! I also LOVE that the Pearly Everlastings attract butterflies🦋🦋!! There is a nature center 20 minutes from the city I live in and they plant milkweed which attracts the Swallowtail Butterflies!!!! Anna, I so enjoyed this Garden Tour🌹🌺🌷💚💚💚💚💚!! And I so LOVE your Cottage Garden, I do apologize for not always being able to watch everything, but I so LOVE what you and your Husband created🤗🤗💚💚💚💚💚💚💚!!!!!!!
