What better place to celebrate Arbor Day than the Winterthur Garden! While you enjoy the lovely spring ephemerals and flowering shrubs, celebrate the lasting importance of trees to our lives: beauty, shelter, fresh air, animal habitat and shade. Here’s a photo of one of my favorite trees on the estate, an oak tree in the meadow near Magnolia Bend. Happy Arbor Day. Plant a tree this weekend!
For in the true nature of things, if we rightly consider, every green tree is far more glorious than if it were made of gold and silver. ~Martin Luther
