A Thing Of Beauty…

…is a joy forever. And the Arboretum is shaping up to be a thing of beauty. (Photos don’t do it justice.)

The several areas where the planting has progressed are transformed.
The work done is stunning, beautiful, sensational. The newly planted areas provide a powerful feeling of welcome, tranquility, and uplift.
Bowers, groves, shaded retreats, and, along a main sidewalk, what I would call a tunnel of trees. A great variety, all native.
This part of the AASP is now a place so inviting it will make people want to visit often, only to find themselves reluctant to leave. And, over the years it will only get better.

Turning out well beyond my expectations.
