THE SCOTT ARBORETUM OF SWARTHMORE COLLEGE

Isabelle Cosby Courtyard

Kohlberg Hall provides a dramatic backdrop for this garden which features many plants with gold or purple foliage. Trees, shrubs, perennials, and bulbs fill this courtyard garden with blooms every month of the year. Large containers display evergreen plants during the winter and tropicals in the summer. Vine covered pillars and low rock walls serve as a complimentary perimeter of the garden. These pillars and walls outline the footprint of a building, Parrish Annex, which once stood where the garden now grows.
