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)

It rained till noon today....I like to make a point of walking the entire collection on rainy days
The top picture is the island bed at the north end of the Korean Collection. The two large trees are a Weeping Katsura and Acer griseum. The second picture is the entrance to the Camellia Collection from the road. The camellias are pretty much over for the season but the Dogwood Collection which begins just off the left side of the trail, is exploding into color. The last picture is the odd sky that happened as the cold front pushed east, vanquishing the hot humid rainy weather we'd just experienced.
