Glenstone Museum

Wolf Trap Gardens

 On August 11 we toured the gardens at Wolf Trap. Members of Master Gardeners of Northern Virginia were there to show us the shade garden and to answer our questions. 

  After we toured the shade garden, Theresa led us on a walk through the park.

 In the shade garden.

We had recently had good rains so we saw several types of interesting fungi as we walked through the park.

  

 This bright orange fungi caught our attention.

 

 

 

We were surprised at how big this one was.
