An Afternoon at Blithewold

Panoramas taken July 25 2014 at Blithewold Mansion, Gardens & Arboretum in Bristol, Rhode Island. This unpretentious but luxurious estate on Narragansett Bay has one of the nicest gardens in New England.

This fine weeping Katsura is one of the many rare specimen trees at Blithewold Garden in Bristol, RI.
Blithewold Gardens, of Bristol Rhode Island, has many rare specimen trees, including the giant sequoia behind the children.  It is still a baby, but in 600 years (God willing) it may be the tallest tree in New England.
The great lawn at Blithewold Mansion slopes down to Naragansett Bay.
