Bucolic and lush aren’t necessarily descriptions used for an inner-city garden area. But this is Philadelphia, a place filled with the history of estates and gardens of the rich such as Compton, the summer home of John and Lydia Morris. Impeccably landscaped, the Morris Arboretum is the very definition of manicured lawns, statues and topiary!
