Information on W.J. Beal Botanical Garden

On the beautiful campus of Michigan State University in East Lansing, Michigan. The plants are clearly labeled, and arranged in informative groupings (in addition to "Landscape Plants," you will find, for example, the "Economic Plants" or "Useful Plants" section, which contains medicinal plants, fiber plants used to make textiles, aromatic plants used to make perfumes, etc.). Definitely worth the trip. (The website is //www.cpa.msu.edu/beal/ ) MSU also has the wonderful Horticultural and Children's Gardens (//www.hrt.msu.edu/gardens/Index.htm).
