Description
These white Chrysanthemum nipponicums (Nippon Daisy) were growing at the Reynolda Botanical Gardens in Winston-Salem, North Carolina (NC).
Reynolda Garden is located adjacent to the Reynolda campus of Wake Forest University and the Reynolda House.
The gardens were originally part of a large country estate and farm created by tobacco magnate R. J. Reynolds and his wife Katharine Smith Reynolds between 1906 and 1923. After the death of Mrs. Reynolds in 1924, most of the property was gradually sold or given away, including a gift of 300 acres to Wake Forest College in the late 1940s for its Winston-Salem campus. In a series of gifts from 1958 to 1962, their daughter Mary Reynolds Babcock established Reynolda Gardens by donating its property to the college. The entire property also includes a 3/4-mile woodland trail, as well as a slightly longer perimeter trail (1.5 miles).
