Pardon Our Dirt! – Cypress Replanting

Feb

10

Please pardon our dirt! In an effort to maintain the historical integrity of the Italian Garden, which is now listed in the National Register of Historic Places, The Cummer has just finished the process of replacing all the cypress in the garden.

In the last year, several of the trees needed to be removed due to problems that caused disfigurement, and those holes remained empty until we were able to find a perfect set of matching cypress. Thanks to our friends at Monrovia Nursery for their help!

Stay tuned for our improvements at the Art Connections entrance!
