I jealous you got to visit .. these plants look awesome together!
I love the way they combine color and texture at the Arboretum…so inspiring! Unfortunately, the Rose and Fragrance Garden is still empty with no word as to when it will return. Such a bummer because I was really looking forward to spending time in there this summer. Oh well, there’s always next year!
