The John Fairey Garden
About this place
A public conservation garden on 39 acres near Hempstead housing over 5,000 plants from around 1,500 species, many rare or endangered. The garden displays plants suited to central Texas and the Gulf Coast, with extensive collections of agaves, magnolias, oaks, gingers, and plants gathered from Mexico, Asia and the United States during expeditions. Families can walk the grounds to see how the garden layers plants by height and texture, discover seasonal bloomers like summer-flowering gingers, and attend tours and educational events. The garden was created by John Fairey in 1971 and is now operated as a nonprofit conservation space.
