- The garden is sited on the southeastern side of a rambling but serenely dignified 18th-century house on 25 acres of mostly wooded countryside.
- Eight-to-ten-foot walls and hedges define the progression of garden spaces – “rooms” as the English like to say – and create a firm architectural framework for the romantic abundance of the plantings.
- Hollister House is owned by George Schoellkopf and Hollister House Garden Inc., a nonprofit organization dedicated to preserving the house and garden.
