I made a quick trip down to the Walled Garden which I would spend a lot of time in tomorrow. Walled Garden: The centerpiece of the gardens features a seasonal rotation of blooms, including 75,000 tulips in the spring, colorful summer annuals, and fall mums. A long arbor covered with grapevines runs down the center with themed areas, including a butterfly garden, white border, scented border, and Victorian border.
From the Biltmore site: Fall tasks at hand
“One of our first tasks for preparing Biltmore’s historic gardens for fall begins just after Labor Day,” Stacey said. “Our crews will be busy pulling all of the tropical plants that have been on display during warmer weather.” Biltmore’s signature fall color flower display of mums will also be planted in the Walled Garden pattern beds.
The mums will begin showing glorious color in late September and early October, with peak bloom around the second or third week of October.
“We usually plan a warm-toned color scheme for fall, with shades of orange, golden yellow, and deep reds and purples,” noted Stacey.
