Florence Rhododendron Festival is much more than flowers

Hendricks Park. Another important figure was James Barto, who raised a large collection of rhododendrons at his farm near Junction City. His specimens often proved to be the first of many local collections. He died in 1940 so, sadly, never saw Hendricks Park become the rhododendron garden it is today. Before his death, his collection was the largest and most outstanding in the United States. In 2000, a portion of the park was converted into a native plant garden. Beneath the “sutchuenense” variety is a bench dedicated to Mary Blakely, who died in 2001 and who taught for two years at a school in the Sichuan Province. Mary and her husband, Jerry, who died in 2013, were primary benefactors of the five-acre Hendricks Park Native Plant Garden. The garden itself was planned and laid out by Chinese landscape architect Jin Chen, who had been a student and friend of Mary Blakely. (Northwest Boomer and Senior News)
