At the entrance to the radiology building, a shady arbor and masses of peonies greet visitors.

This department has the best conference room ever: a patio, right out in the garden.

Star of Persia (Allium christophii) grown in mass creates a beautiful carpet around other plants, like these pink evening primroses (Oenothera speciosa).

A soothing pond is tucked between the trees and gardens, and is lined with moisture loving plants, like yellow flag iris (Iris pseudoacorus).

Bearded iris and oriental poppies welcome the beginning of summer with their bright colors.
