Living Landscape

Special thanks to Norfolk Botanical Garden for installing signage on campus to identify native plants throughout our 145,000-square-foot living landscape surrounding the Greer Environmental Sciences Center. The landscape, which is managed and cared for by NBG, is inspired by the ecosystems of the Eastern Shore and contains nearly 60 different plant species.
