Boxerwood Gardens: Nature Center and Woodland Garden
The hollow is a magical place hidden on the far side of the wetlands dam. Its low-lying ground and the presence of the creek make it a perfect home for those of us who like water but do not necessarily want to live in it.
The pathway into the hollow is amazing in spring -- there are daffodils everywhere!
Have you ever wondered what might be living on or underneath a log? Well, the hollow is the best place at Boxerwood to find out. Check out two cool things we found in just a few minutes of looking -- imagine what you could find in a whole afternoon! Pictured are a brightly colored millipede and shelf fungus on a tree stump. 
Both play a role in the decomposition process -- millipedes eat invertebrates who are active decomposers and fungus is one of the most important decomposers.
What's the last thing you see as you leave the hollow? Why, a hollow log, of course! Looks like a great home to me! Who do you think might make its home here?
