Hortense Miller Garden is a 2.5-acre garden on the upper slopes of Boat Canyon. Established by Hortense Miller in 1959, the garden was planted with more than 800 species of plants, 150 of which are native plants.
She was not only a gardener, but also an artist, environmentalist, feminist, and writer. The garden is also home to several kinds of animals including foxes, opossums, raccoons, and skunks.
Experienced docents lead two-hour tours of the garden. The house sits perched on a steep side of the canyon and contains many windows with views of the canyon and the Pacific Ocean.
