DECEMBER 13-19, 2020 Lights Aglow Throughout Northwest Arkansas The Botanical Garden of the Ozarks in Fayetteville has on display what is believed to be the largest living wreath in the region. Created by horticulture designer Lee Witty, the wreath is approximately 7 feet across and consists of about 18 plant and tree varieties, including muscadine vine, arborvitae, Colorado blue spruce, American holly, cedar, osmanthus and pine. Witty used the prunings from the trees and plants in the garden to create this beauty. The wreath is hanging under the arbor on the Great Lawn. The BGO is open 9 a.m.-5 p.m. Friday-Tuesday and closed on Wednesdays and Thursdays. (Courtesy Photo) Skating in Bentonville, trees in Eureka Springs add to fun See Christmas Page 38
