Fall is a good time for change. We had Loropetalum 'Ruby' providing a partial border around an Acer rubrum in our front yard. We had one of the shrubs die this year and decided that this may be a good time for a change, so Tom had the difficult job of digging out all of the Loropetalum. In their place, we decided to continue with the sweep of Dryopteris erythrosora (Autumn Fern) we had started.
MapleWalk is the private garden of Lib Jones and Tom Nunnenkamp in the SouthPark area of Charlotte, NC. While the garden derives its name from the over 90 different varieties of Japanese maples, MapleWalk is also known for its collection of dogwoods, redbuds, conifers, camellias, and colorful herbaceous perennials. With 1600 feet of stone lined paths, the steps, where necessary, are accompanied by sturdy handrails. Group guided tours are available by contacting: Info@maplewalkgarden.com
