There is no shortage of green at the North Carolina Botanical Garden. The
900-acre garden in Chapel Hill shows off several shades of green in its
gardens, which are filled with lotus lilies, orchids, tobacco, pitcher
plants, trilliums, mountain laurel and heartleaf pickerelweed alongside
thousands of other species. The garden has been showcasing native plants
and habitat gardens since it was founded in 1971.
