Secret Garden: Part 4

I've been spending this week sharing about a lovely visit to the Knoxville Botanical Garden and Arboretum.  Here are a few of our favorite trees that we spotted on our visit.

100-year-old Red Oak

Tag said "cotinas coggyria" (Smoke Tree)

Tag said "lagerstroemia indica Natchez" (Crape Myrtle)

Century-old Cedars of Lebanon

Hundreds of trees in rows because they were planted for the nursery
More spring bulbs should be adding their layer of color to the garden as the season progresses.  And of course, the dogwoods are expected to bloom in April.
