Mother's Garden

Mother's Garden was part of the summer estate of H. R. Mayo Thom. The garden was built in the early 1900's by Reginald Giddings for Mr. Thom's wife, Helen Hopkins Thom. The garden was maintained by the Bishop family until the 1960's. In 1982, the abandoned garden was restored to its original beauty by volunteers and the Anne Arundel County Department of Recreation and Parks.

Marker can be reached from John H. Downs Loop 0.1 miles east of Chesapeake Bay Drive when traveling east.
