Planting Fields Foundation

The annual tree lighting of the 35-foot Japanese umbrella pine tree took place quietly this evening at Planting Fields. In the interest of safety we were unable to host the usual public gathering. Located on the south side of the Camellia Greenhouse, the tree will be lit daily. Come see it! . . . #loveplantingfields #plantingfields #plantingfieldsarboretum #holidayseason #treelighting

West Portico Restoration Week 6! The team's sophisticated craftsmanship shines in the latest phase of the project. The "Dutchman Process" restores damaged patches of Indiana limestone throughout the West Portico without replacing the historic building materials entirely. The stone patches are hand tooled to recreate the texture and pattern of the existing stones to blend seamlessly.

Can you spy the subtle creatures in the ironwork of these Samuel Yellin fire screens? Posted @withregram @ginawouters The stylized s scrolls by American Arts and Crafts icon, Samuel Yellin, are finally visible by the backlighting of the fire. Yellin’s hand forged iron work is all over Coe Hall at Planting Fields. #museummonday #coehall #plantingfields #historichomes #samuelyellin
