garden george grew hands imagine knees plants recorded small space sugar tried washington
If you can imagine encountering George Washington on the grounds, it would be in the Botanical Garden on his knees with his hands in the dirt. He tried many new plants in this small space and recorded things in detail. But not everything he grew here was new and experimental. He grew sugar beets, grasses, peppers, oaks, pecans, Lombardy poplars and chinaberry.
great move trees
It's great to be able to move these big trees in with nothing else around. They are all handpicked ... the 'Cadillac' of trees.
