Explore these images of the flora and scenery from the northern tip of Israel, Mount Hermon.
My final trip with the Jerusalem Botanical Gardens, was to Mount Hermon. Located in the far north of Israel, Mount Hermon is surrounded by Lebanon on one side and Syria on the other. The Hermon is home to much unique flora not found elsewhere in Israel. The wild service tree, Sorbus torminalis, for example is only found in Israel on the slopes of Hermon.
