The Sensory Garden

The sensory garden bed was primarily designed for your sense of touch and sense of smell. It was planted with several varieties of thyme, sage, rosemary, and scented geraniums. It also has fennel, sweet mace, lemon balm, lambs ear, anise hyssop, and curry. These plants are all meant to be touched and smelled.

Come to Gore Place and enjoy the garden yourself! You'll have a great time smelling all the amazing herbs and feeling all the different textures. Gently rub a leaf of each plant with your fingers, then smell the aroma on your hand.
