In July of 2012 I wrote about giving back in a little different way to the university that I proudly graduated from back in 1997. Working with Assoc. Professor of horticulture Mark Starrett, we donated hundreds of plants that his students potted and planted all over campus.

Well today I received some updated photos and all I can say is, “WOW!”

Medical Library Gardens

They did a great job with the color and contrast of colors!

Sun and Shade Garden

Beautiful, tall Daylilies in the back and shorter Gaillardia and Coreopsis in the front. Nice work!

Peonies

Who doesn’t like Peonies?!

As you can see they’ve done a great job and have really added spectacular color all around campus. Keep up the great work Mark and if you happen to be on campus don’t forget to check out all that’s in bloom! Happy Gardening!
