Biblical Garden at PVUMC
located in Paradise Valley, Arizona 

Paradise Valley United Methodist Church built this Biblical Garden because the climate of Arizona turned out to be similar to Palestine. Bob Morgan was the original keeper of the garden which is located near the original chapel on the site. Biblical plants include date palms, myrtle, crown of thorns, olive, papyrus and pomegranates. There are also several thousand other plants and flowers rounding out the garden.
