Presby Memorial Iris Gardens brings a notable iris collection to a hillside in Upper Montclair.

The planted beds and mature trees create a focused botanical destination, with the main flowering season providing a particularly colorful reason to visit.
Consult the gardens’ current bloom information, visiting hours and garden etiquette before planning a trip around flowers. The iris display is seasonal, and the photograph shows the beds during bloom rather than a year-round appearance. Stay on permitted routes and check arrangements for special garden events.
