Mixed Border

Looking for landscaping ideas for your garden? The Mixed Border is an area of the JCRA you need to be sure to visit.

A gently winding path weaves through a series of garden vignettes, each displaying the elements important to a successful garden: trees, shrubs, ground covers, perennials, bulbs, and landscape features. A wooden bridge carries visitors across a bog area surrounded by flowing ornamental grasses. A peaceful seating area under a large arbor invites you to stay and spend the afternoon.

A few of the fine plant specimens located in this garden include:

  • copper-flowered common witchhazel – Hamamelis ×intermedia 'Jelena'
  • Chinese tuliptree – Liriodendron chinense
  • Harris hybrid azalea – Rhododendron 'Pink Cascade'
