The Arboretum’s gardens are overflowing with lots of colorful, and some unusual flowers. The bright orange Zinnias are a cheerful addition to this garden bed. Love-lies-bleeding (Amaranthus caudatus) is a dramatic annual flowering plant with long strings of dark red flowers; lovely surrounded by Purple top vervain (Verbena bonariensis) and Lantana. And who can resist the beautiful yellow Sunflower (Helianthus sp)?
Thanks Lisa!
