What's Blooming at the Los Angeles County
Arboretum


January 2008
Page One



January may be the month when the fewest species are blooming at the Arboretum. Having spent most of the month in the Eastern Cape of South Africa, I was not able to spend as much time there as in previous months, but that was okay since most of what is blooming I have already photographed. I'm looking forward to the new Garden for All Seasons, and keeping my eyes open for blooming species that I haven't seen before.
