Duke Gardens, Botanical garden in Somerset County, New Jersey, US

The Duke Gardens featured 60,000 square feet of indoor gardens containing collections of plants arranged in eleven distinct thematic exhibition spaces.

The gardens, created by Doris Duke and opened to public viewing in 1964, remained active until their closure by the Doris Duke Foundation in 2008.

The indoor displays incorporated design elements from various countries, including an oriental garden with a bridge spanning over a koi stream.

The Duke Gardens Foundation managed the property as part of Duke Farms, a 2,700-acre estate established by James Buchanan Duke in New Jersey.

Each of the eleven exhibition gardens presented full-scale recreations of gardens from different countries and time periods within the greenhouse structure.
