The Farmers Branch Public Daylily Garden is located in a public park area west of the Farmers Branch City Hall on city property. The garden was designated as an official AHS Display Garden in late January 2011. It is bordered on three sides by the Farmers Branch All-American Rose Selection Test Garden. It is bordered on the South side by open land, an established pecan orchard, picnic area, and Rawhide Creek with its scenic bridge and walking path. To the West of the entire area are DART Rail Lines, Liberty Plaza, and the Farmers Branch Convention Center. To the North is the Farmers Branch DART Transit Station. A block to the South is the Farmers Branch Historical Park. The Farmers Branch Parks and Recreation Department constructed all the flower beds. There are eight raised flower beds, consisting of one L-shaped bed and seven circular beds. Each bed is edged with rectangular stones. |
