The Garden of the Hesperides is Hera's orchard in a far western corner of the world, located near the Atlas mountains in Tanger, Morocco where a grove of immortality-giving golden apples grew. The trees were planted from the fruited branches that Gaia gave to Hera as a wedding gift when Hera accepted Zeus as her husband. The Hesperides were given the task of tending to the grove, but occasionally plucked from it themselves. Not trusting them, Hera also placed in the garden a never-sleeping, hundred-headed dragon named Ladon as an additional safeguard for her precious apples.
