Green anole 'Anolis carolinensis'
A frequent visitor to the gardens. This fine specimen was captured on camera by our landscape technician Kevin Cassel.

This one-of-a-kind rock sculpture masterpiece was created by Josh Rickards of Creative Cascades and will be one of the items available during the live auction at the Friends Party on Nov 2nd. Tickets available online thefriends.wildapricot.org

The sculpture pieces were chosen to balance with one another to create the ‘just perfect’ art form for your garden. If you look at the top 3 stones, you can see a person walking towards you, welcoming you to their special spot. Includes installation by the creator Josh Rickards, and special assistant Dale, the miniature Schnauzer.
