Wing Haven Gardens

Located in an upscale, older residential district of Charlotte, the gardens are not heavily visited, inexpensive to enter and most definitely worth the trip. The photos are mostly in the order of the walk around the gardens, both at Wing Haven itself and at the Elizabeth Lawrence house 10 doors away.
