In a protected area near Johnson Creek, botanists Lilla and John Leach personally developed and planted this plot with some 1500 species of wildflowers, shrubs, ferns and irises. Native plants and specimens from their own collection combined to create a naturalized area that's been beautifully maintained for visitors. In the couple's 1930s-era manor house, children's nature study classes are held and their legacy ­ and love ­ of botany and landscape design live on.
