A Garden Tour Guide is okay…

But I like to go at my own pace . That ’s why Scott Arboretum has made my leaning of awesome gardens to visit . During a recent Perennial Plant Conference held at the Scott Arboretum , I received my group discussion packet boat which included a brochure asking me to “ Please rick your electric cell phone ON . ” The brochure provide a map and explain how you can take an introductory tour of the garden at your own leisure , yet still get the benefit of a knowledgeable go usher by either dial the number provided on the booklet at each denominate location , or by download podcasts directly to your MP3 player or ipod . So , the next clip you ’re near Swarthmore , PA ( outside of the Philadelphia area ) , kibosh in at Swarthmore College ’s Scott Arboretum and take your honorable ol’ time touring their gardens . There ’s no one to rush you along … just dial in when you ’re ready .

Scott Arboretum also has two extra podcasts currently uncommitted ( though winter is cursorily approaching , so new podcasts will probably be available next yr ):
