George C. Marshall and his wife were committed gardeners. In 1941 they bought Dodona Manor to serve as a weekend retreat from their public life at Quarters Number One at Fort Myer, Virginia. In buying the residence they sought a quiet place to retire to for relaxation and gardening, which along with reading, were their favorite shared pastimes. In order to enjoy and work in the garden as much as possible, they lived at Dodona during the warm months between April and October.
