More Photos from Logees

The April trip to Logees was a wonderful experience. Fran has very nicely shared more photos from that trip so those that couldn't join the group can get an idea of what a fascinating place Logees is. It is comprised of a number of greenhouses absolutely filled to the brim with exotic tropicals. These are suitable for summer patio plantings and wonderful house plants. So if you want something really special it's the place to go. Hopefully this will be an annual trip and you can join the group next spring.

The Connecticut College Arboretum

The Connecticut College Arboretum is a real local treasure.  The Mystic Garden Club was treated to a tour of the Caroline Black Gardens.  But anyone can enjoy a tour on any Sunday at 2 PM from May to October.  Tours begin from the blue sculpture in front of the Olin Building near the main gate.  The first Sunday is a tour of the Caroline Black Garden.  The second Sunday tour is of the campus gardens and the following Sundays are of the Native Plant Gardens.
A special thanks to Carol Connor and Bodil Meyer for their photos.

The group is admiring the huge redwood tree.
