Out and About in the Arboretum

What a roller-coaster weather week it has been! While today is quite rainy and unpleasant, you may have been Out and About earlier in the week, when there were some beautiful winter scenes to enjoy. Check out a few here.

Everywhere you look these days, you will see lovely holiday decor adorning our community building, thanks to a dedicated group of resident volunteers!

It’s a good year for berries – they are beautiful and add visual interest to the landscape, and they are also an abundant source of food for birds.

It’s not too late in the year to find the Camellia plants awash in buds and blossoms of all stages.

It is a fine time for some fall foliage! It seems that our weather patterns have resulted in a fantastic bookend to the equally rich-spring blooms. From the deep reds to the bright yellows, it is a feast for the eyes. Be sure to enjoy when out and about!

As is tradition, we feature the adorable Bald Cypress ghosts in honor of Halloween. While the “knees” are always on display, costumes make them extra festive for the occasion.
