Aloes in the desert

 

I find that many people think of Arizona as one huge desert but this is far from the reality. One of the most impressive places to visit in Arizona is the Boyce Thompson Arboretum located about an hour east of Phoenix on Highway 60 just south of Superior, Arizona. For many years, until we moved to Utah, my wife and I had a membership in the Arboretum but we make a point to visit when we return to Mesa from time to time. It has one of the most impressive collections of desert plants from around the world and may dramatically change your impression that all of Arizona is a barren desert.
