Featurned Gardens within the Clarence E. Lewis Landscape Arboretum

The ORIGINAL MASTER PLAN of the Clarence E. Lewis Landscape Arboretum was developed during the summer of 1983. It was planned as a collection of landscapes hence the name landscape arboretum. These landscape gardens are developed in such a way that students can refine their skills and visitors walk away with ideas. The following pages present our featured landscape gardens. Although several are complete, several still await sponsors and several are yet to be conceived. We hope you enjoy the stroll through our arboretum. Remember what Clancy said, " Let our imaginations run.... look through the foliage.... look to the areas beyond.... see the patterns, the pictures". If you are interested in sponsoring a garden or contributing to an existing garden please contact:
