Carolina On My Mind: Part 3, Sarah P. Duke Gardens

 Another garden on my bucket list was Sarah P. Duke Gardens. I made a beeline for the Asiatic Arboretum. I was fascinated by the bamboo and gorgeous views.



I wandered for a bit and saw a wooden zig zag bridge. There is a small stone one at Chicago Botanic's Sansho-En!



The Japanese maples were beautiful, as always.




The red arch bridge stood out in the landscape.




The Historic Gardens were my next stop.





There was so much beautiful texture and a lovely fountain in this part of the garden.






I made my way to the native plant section, which had some beautiful pitcher plants and a big snail!

It was time to go back to the hotel, but not before we grabbed some awesome taiyaki ice cream!
