I went out to see what havoc the tree contractors were wreaking, and they weren't. They were doing a good job....minimal collateral damage. I couldn't help noticing how colorful the entrance was and how nicely balanced the visual elements were. It's been more than 50 years since the original plantings in Fern Valley; this can't be the result of design, but rather continual readjustment, serendipity, and possibly divine intervention.
One in Adelphi, Maryland, one in Wildwood, Florida, one at the US National Arboretum with a grandfatherly interest in many more around the DC area (unless noted, pictures are taken the day of post)
