A Victorian cottage garden with old-fashioned flowers. The hacienda was expanded to its current size in the mid-19th century by Santa Fe Trail merchant James L. Johnson. In the late 1920s, it was purchased by Margretta Dietrich who, along with her sister artist Dorothy Stewart, converted it to apartments. Today it is owned by the Historic Santa Fe Foundation who provides housing for artist and writers. It is assumed the garden was created in the Johnson period of ownership (1854-1881). It was restored by the Historic Santa Fe Foundation in 1991, which provides housing for artist and writers.
Opening times - Daily except Sundays and holidays. Open 9am to 5pm.

If this garden was in England, with its plentiful rain, I would give it 4 out of 5 stars (not 5 stars-that's for the English masters). But given the climate and water situation in Santa Fe, and New Mexico in general, having an indulgent garden like this--with its copious water needs and special soil amendments and care--is just in bad taste and deeply irresponsible. This gives the average person the impression that they can run out and do the same sort of thing--which, when done, draws down even further on a strained water supply.
What is more important--fresh water or THIS? You've got to be kidding me. Such a shame...(1.0/5)
