If you are near Wooster, OHIO, a must see and it is FREE! The Secrest Arboretum
If you are ever in Wooster, Ohio and you love plants, (trees, shrubs, perennials, rhododendrons and much more) it is a must see,
THE SECREST ARBORETUM, best of all it is Free!
HERE IS THE LINK TO THE DIRECTIONS,
I have been visiting the arboritum since 1979, and it never gets boring. Sad to see some of my favorite tree specimen had passed (The Umbrella Pine), but they have added so much other landscape areas and you can even get married in the Rhododendron Garden.
Back in the day my friends and I thought it would be fun to spend the night in Arboretum, we found a spot hidden from the guard that drove around all night. When it got about 12 and the moisture started to come through the hard ground, I looked at my friends peacefully sleep ran home to my nice warm bed.... PS. It was not easy ducking in the bushes from the guard, he really did his job back then.
