Georgiann Keller is taking a much-needed vacation for the next couple of weeks, so Terry Huang, the Garden’s Director of Living Collections, will be filling in. This week’s audio blog is quite robust to make up for our missed week last week!  Not to mention that the Garden is in-between seasons at the moment, with spring and summer flowers blooming simultaneously. Terry takes us to almost every corner of the Garden and gives us indepth facts and descriptions of everything that catches his eye. From colors, shapes, scents and even plant history, you’re sure to learn something new this week. While these descriptions and pictures are fun, nothing beats experiencing nature live and in person. Tickets to the Garden can be found here
