On this pleasant weekend, I harken back to April 2008 when I had the good fortune to be invited to visit Augusta National Golf Club in Augusta, Georgia.

Far from being "a good walk spoiled", it was an experience of a lifetime. From the eye-straining hues of green to the phenomenal quality of upkeep, I was amazed around every turn of the course.

Here are a few of the woody denizens of this verdant reserve.

**Magnolia grandiflora lining the entrance drive

**An embankment of (I think) Lady Banks' Rose - Rosa banksiae 'Lutea'

**Acer griseum happily in open pine shade

**A big old holly coming into bloom, likely an Ilex latifolia clone

**The rampant Wisteria sp. next to the clubhouse
