The collection of small trees will also be removed. In their place will be a long vista of turf flanked by two spectacular 15 foot wide perennial borders. This will give the SFA Arboretum the largest perennial border display in the state, possibly even the entire South. This will also give the Arboretum and it's admirers a much needed starting place. Both the visual and physical aspects of the borders will help channel visitors down through the daylily and herb gardens and then into the shade garden.
Plans are in order to have a unique set of color theme borders.
Stay tuned for a masterpiece in the works. Thanks to all. Should amount to the classiest and showiest part of the arboretum. The mountain of firewood from clearing the Azalea Garden forest helped light up the night Friday, October 16, for the SFA Homecoming Bonfire. The Children's Garden continues to take shape as hardscape and plants are installed.
