Very nice arboretum, from what I've seen of photos (I've not been there)...
they have a lot of Asiatic rarities like Davidia involucrata, too.


Is that a rarity? A friend of mine has one growing happily in
a tub while he waits for his new house to be built.


Quite rare in the wild; on the IUCN Red List. L. chinenese is also in
the red book, iirc.
