A Garden Stroll

We spent the day at the North Carolina Arboretum, a wonderful 400 + acre teaching facility that allows free access to their gardens and hiking trails.  They have some very innovative plantings, water saving techniques that allow one garden's water to flow down to the next, a creative bonsai garden and many, many, eco friendly designs.  Of course they have the hot, humid, long North Carolina spring/summer/fall season that allows everything to bloom to it's fullest.
