Summary

[edit]
Description

Asian plants are fascinating, not only for their diversity, but also because they bear a close resemblance to our native Eastern United States flora. This close kinship is a result of the Bering Sea land bridge that once connected our native flora with that of Eastern Asia. Until the seas and climate change cut the temperate forest into two distinct pieces, the two areas shared a common flora. Many of the plants in the Asian Collections bear a striking similarity to our native trees and shrubs.
