Photograph of the gazebo at the Georgia Bamboo Farm and Coastal Gardens in Savannah, Georgia. A variety of plants grow around the gazebo, and a brick path leads to the gazebo. Historic plant collections at the University of Georgia Bamboo Farm and Coastal Gardens began in 1890, when Mrs. H. B. Miller planted three bamboo plants, obtained from Cuba, at a site in southwestern Savannah. By 1915 the original three plants had multiplied into a flourishing bamboo grove. - Metadata URL:
