Designed by landscape architect William P. Hager, this garden was established when the home was remodeled in 1965. Featured on the 1972 tours of the Garden Club of America 59th annual meeting, the property features an entance courtyard surrounded by a low brick wall and a holly hedge, and a private back garden which is divided into lower and upper garden areas. The private garden levels are delineated by a curved redwood fence with brick steps leading from the lower main garden to the upper wild garden. As described in 1971, included in the garden areas are a rose garden, a wildflower garden, and a work and storage area where the compost heap is located.
Original plantings included espaliered dwarf fruit trees growing against the house, azaleas, and many varieties of hollies. In the mid-1980s a number of plantings were added to the garden including a blackgum tree, a sugar maple, a European hornbeam, and additions to the rose garden to include 40 different varieties.
This garden was originally documented as an unidentified garden in the Hollerith Family slide collection. An update of the garden documentation was provided in 2012.
Persons associated with the property include: Mr. and Mrs. J. Stewart Buxton (former owners, 1936-2003); Nelson and Andrew Kilpatrick (former owners, 2003-2010); and William P. Hager (landscape architect, 1965).

Designed by William P.Hager in 1966, this garden was featured on the tours of the Garden Club of America 59th annual meeting. The description of the garden from the pamphlet from the meeting states that the garden is "not a garden in the true sense," rather it is "a walled area for outdoor living." The outdoor living area features a small swimming pool fed by the spill of a fountain pool at one end which features a sculpture of a kneeling girl by New Orleans artist Ricardo Alfreze. The house was designed in the French traditional "hotel particular" style by architect Edward Silverstein and Associates of New Orleans. The garden is accessed through French doors which leads onto a large stone terrace where steps descend to the pool level. Off the owner's bedroom is a small garden with a small fountain figure and pool against an arched wall niche shaded by a large dogwood. The entire garden is paved in crab orchard stone except for the plant beds. Plantings include thirteen different varieties of hollies, early and late blooming azaleas, dogwoods, camellias and photinias. Hollies are in specimen tree form and espalier treatments.
Persons associated with the property include: Mr. and Mrs. John Sneed Williams (former owner, 1970s?), William P. Hager (landscape architect, 1966),

The Black Garden designed by J. Duke Moody had a formal symmetrical structure with two brick terraces with outdoor furniture, fountains and brick-edged garden borders with easily maintained plantings. Sculptures were placed on plinths against brick backdrops and a wrought iron gazebo at the end of the principle terrace was planted with yellow trumpet vine. Although originally a mid-19th c. farmhouse the brick building was updated with French grille doors, a bay window overlooking the garden, and a garden room made from a screened porch.
This garden was originally documented as part of the Hollerith Family slide collection donated in 1993. An update of the garden documentation was provided in 2012.

This garden is small Victorian-style cottage and green garden located in the area of Memphis known as the Central Garden District. In the 1970s plantings included azaleas, boxwood, holly and magnolias with beds of vinca and ivy. To the east of the property, a gate leads to an allee, leading to a brick terrace. The best entrance into the garden was through the dining room of the house.The main axis of the garden centered on a fountain at the end of a rectangular zoysia lawn. The back patio has a greenhouse. On April 23rd, 1971 the garden was almost demolished by a storm which uprooted a great elm, destroying the carport, greenhouse, brick walls and walks, and a screening of magnolias. The redesign of the relaxed formal garden was completed by J. Duke Moody in the year following the storm.
Persons associated with the property include: Dr. and Mrs. Moore, Jr. (former owners, dates unknown).
