Description
This image is of the Greensboro Beautiful Arboretum, one of our most beautiful gardens in the city. It is a large area a17-acre site that features 10 woody plant collections, special display gardens and distinct structural features. The extensive variety of plants offers rich educational opportunities for children and adults, landscape designers, and homeowners. A texture was used with this image.
The Greensboro Arboretum began as a joint project of Greensboro Beautiful and the Greensboro Parks & Recreation Department to provide the community with an outstanding collection of plants Irene McIverfor study and enjoyment. In the late 70's. While under construction, special care was given to construct a landscape display garden which would utilize the natural topography of the site, which ranges from steep, almost cliff-like slopes to flat, meadow-like plains.
The garden was formally opened to the public in 1991, and has proven to be a regional treasure - a living gallery of beauty, a learning laboratory for all ages, and a unique place for a tranquil walk.
