| Description |
English: Some of the Asian Collections are very old, while others are new additions. The earliest plantings took place in 1949. The Garden Club of America donated the funds to construct a plaza at the top of Asian Valley and develop extensive plantings of representative Asian flora in 1963. The red pagoda, which is styled after a Chinese pagoda, was also constructed with funds donated by the Garden Club of America. The present structure, reconstructed in 1996, sits atop a knoll on the ridge that separates China Valley and Asian Valley and provides a panoramic view of Asian Valley, China Valley, and the Anacostia River.
Français : Certaines des collections asiatiques sont très anciennes, tandis que d'autres sont des apports récents. Les premières plantations ont eu lieu en 1949. En 1963, le Garden Club of America a fait don des fonds nécessaires à la construction d'une place au sommet de la Vallée asiatique (Asian Valley) et à l'aménagement de vastes plantations de plantes originaires d'Asie. La pagode rouge, qui s'inspire d'une pagode chinoise, a également été construite grâce aux fonds donnés par le Garden Club of America. La structure actuelle date de 1996. Elle se trouve au sommet d'une colline, sur la crête qui sépare les Vallées chinoise et asiatique, sur lesquelles elle offre une vue panoramique, ainsi que sur la rivière Anacostia.
