With only one week left of summer, now is the time to visit the Garden. The weather is just right – not too hot, not too cold. And there are plenty of flowers to enjoy. Georgiann Keller helps identify our newest blooms week after week, and she does not disappoint this round! Take a listen to her latest audio blog below and then make sure to get your tickets in advance! And on your next visit, you’ll also want to check out the plants for sale at our kiosk in Palm Circle. Our Mangave ‘SCBG hybrid’ is back! This unique hybrid was developed right here at SCBG. It’s a cross between an Agave and a Manfreda (sometimes called a False Agave). You’ll definitely want to pick one up while supplies last!
