Louisiana Gardens PB

Beautiful, vivid photographs combine with equally vibrant text to
present twenty-nine of the Pelican State's most famous gardens.
Louisiana's traditional gardens, plantation gardens, arboretums, parks,
commemorative areas, and nature preserves will awe and inspire gardeners
everywhere. Among those featured are the Louisiana State Arboretum, the first
state-supported arboretum in the United States, and Audubon Park and Zoological
Gardens, featuring not only the handiwork of renowned landscape planner John
Charles Olmsted, but also a world-class zoo that is home to more than 1,800
animals.
For those wishing to see the gardens for themselves, helpful maps offer
directions to every azalea, camellia, and magnolia from Afton Villa Gardens in
St. Francisville to Zemurray Gardens in Loranger.
