Re: Gardens to see on way to NJ Regional MTG?

**W*@aol.com**

Thanks, Catriona, all are ones I regularly visit -- love Ladew  especially! 
(Note: Nemours and Longwood are two we'll be taking tour groups  up to 
ourselves this Fall/Winter.) We're looking for gardens more off the  Northern 
beaten path and closer to the NJ meeting destination that DC-area  folks like 
myself may not know about.

Winterthur woodlands are alive  with the blooms of hybrid daylilies and the 
delicate whites of joe-pye-weed  and bugbane. At Magnolia Bend, the whites of the 
oakleaf hydrangeas are paired  with the whte blossoms of rugosa roses. In 
the Quarry Garden amid the soothing  sounds of natural springs and meandering 
streams, you can enjoy astilbes,  iris, white bellflowers, and rudbeckia in 
full flower along with hostas that  are just starting to bloom. The Glade 
refreshing with the waterfall and fish  pools is surrounded by hostas and 
hydrangeas. Nearby, the Reflecting Pool is  surrounded with containers filled 
with colorful summer annuals.. And as the  summer progresses, the streambanks 
and wetlands of the estate seem to change  every week as native wildflowers 
come in and out of bloom.)

Enjoy the journey!
