[Magdalen] Landscaping.

[Cantor03 at aol.com]

I had an appointment yesterday with an oral surgeon.  I had never  before
visited his office.  The medical/dental building was probably built  about
2000, if one is to gage that from the 30' Pin Oaks (Quercus  palustris)
marking the buildings four corners.  The rest of the landscaping was  
undoubtedly
the same age, and was very impressive.  There were several large  weeping
Eastern White Pines (Pinus Strobus), a number of red Lace Leaf  Japanese
Maples (Acer palmatum), and Alaska Cedars (Cupressus nootkatensis).
To top it off, there was a large bed of nasturtiums, already  blooming.
To me, though, the twin Upright (fastigate) Copper European Beech  trees
(Fagus sylvatica fastigata) made my day.
 
Probably a large majority of people fail to notice this  display.  For me,
though, it sure beat pulling teeth!
