We took J out to the local university’s botanical gardens Sunday. We knew that, being a gardener herself, J would be fascinated by all the various species that might not necessarily be unique to this area but certainly don’t grow in Poland.
What was most amazing for her was the number of deciduous trees, Poland being mostly forested with coniferous varieties. Of course, with the leaves off the trees, said deciduous trees aren’t nearly as lovely as they’ll be in spring — and of course autumn, but by then, J will be long gone.
However, she will be here in spring, and so visits to all the various parks and gardens in the area are already in the works.
