Charlene Owens Maguire

Had a wonderful time at the MO Botanical Garden with Charlene. It was the most perfect, glorious day. Bright, clear blue skies and lots of sun. We spent some time in the fabulous Iris garden. So many colors to look at. We had some great conversations with some of the workers. Charlene and I both want to get a TriColor Beech tree. I priced one out at a nursery and it was $195 for an immature 5'6" tree. We saw a wonderful example at the garden.
We passed through the Japanese and Chinese gardens; had lunch then hit the gift store. Lots of great stuff. Then headed back to West County.
