Overview
Chanticleer in Wayne is a 35-acre "pleasure garden," the former estate of the Rosengarten family, where individual horticulturists design and tend a series of themed gardens, including a woodland, a "ruin" garden, and a pond garden. It is open seasonally from spring through fall and is widely regarded as one of America's most inspiring public gardens.
