Hide Profile

Weeks Hall, the fourth generation and last private owner of Shadows on the Teche Plantation, restored its gardens in the 1920s and 1930s. Hall divided his grounds into "rooms" with a square garden, a round garden, and a "naturalistic garden," these being formed by boxwood hedges and aspidistra walks. He also added azaleas and increased the number of camellias.
