Watnong Gardens: Morris Plains, N.J.

Gardening became a real passion for Frank Donn Frank and Helen DonnHelen Donn when 15 years ago they purchased a property that used to be a nursery located next door to their longtime home.

The 2.5-acre property has conifers, shrubs, hostas, ferns, perennials and a water garden. The Donns recently added a waist-high train set with four cars that measure between six and eight feet long and are filled with alpine plants.
