Download or read book The Crosby Arboretum written by Robert F. Brzuszek and published by LSU Press. This book was released on 2014-04-07 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since its genesis in 1980, Crosby Arboretum in southern Mississippi has attracted international recognition for its contributions to architecture, biology, and landscape design. Now owned and operated by Mississippi State University, Crosby is the first fully realized ecologically designed arboretum in the United States and the premier native plant conservatory in the Southeast. Former site director and curator Robert F. Brzuszek provides a detailed survey of the arboretum's origins, planning, construction, and ongoing management. More than just a botanical center, Crosby emerged as one of the first American landscape projects to successfully balance natural habitat and planned design. The book's generous selection of photographs and drawings illustrate the beauty and purpose of the site's components: the award-winning Pinecote Pavilion, designed by architect Fay Jones; a 104-acre focus area that includes the Piney Woods Lake, which displays native water plants in their natural setting; and seven hundred additional acres of savanna, woodland, and aquatic environments that nurture more than 300 species of indigenous trees, shrubs, wildflowers, and grasses. Utilizing the interactions between two opposing natural forces -- fire and water -- Crosby Arboretum protects the biological diversity indigenous to the Pearl River Drainage Basin, in southern Mississippi and southeastern Louisiana. Brzuszek's inspiring and informative account will help further Crosby's role as a model of sustainable landscape design and management across the country.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Horace Greeley advised westward-bound young men to steer clear of Minnesota because "they can't grow apples there." But as early as the 1850s, pioneers such as Peter Gideon began giving the lie to Greeley's dictum, breeding fruits and flowers that would thrive in spite of the state's brutal Januarys and torrid Julys. By 1908, the momentum begun by Gideon and other rustic geniuses had inspired the creation of the Minnesota Fruit Farm, eventually to become the Minnesota Landscape Arboretum and Horticultural Reasearch Center, the state's premier horticultural institution. In this lavishly illustrated centennial tribute to the Arboretum, Susan Davis Price and John Gregor invite the reader to join them in a celebration of Minnesota's horticultural year: dramatic snowshapes, the subtle hues of early spring, masses of tulips and daffodils, the deep yellows and oranges of August, and the apple harvest, with its hardy 'Wealthy' and 'Haralson' and wildly popular 'Honeycrist.' Each of the Arboretum's gardens is profiled, from the scrupulously pruned Japanese garden to the wild, wide-open Bennett/Johnson prairie. Thousands of visitors relish the distinctive charms of these beautiful spots every year, along with the joys of the Spring Plant Sale, the Harvest Fest, and a rich assortment of workshops, classes, and educational events. This splendid volume is an ode to human ingenuity and determination. Based on a wealth of original sources, historic photos, and interviews, it documents for the first time the Minnesota Arboretum's evolution from a hopeful experiment into a northern treasure.
