What’s Blooming in the Garden: Week of August 8

This week’s What’s Blooming starts in an unsuspected place – the Dorothy and John Bohannon Rose Garden. While this is a centerpiece of the Garden in spring and early summer, there are new blooms arriving in this beautiful spot even now! It’s not the only area that’s having a long season, the Desert Garden is also seeing lasting blooms. Take a listen to Georgiann Keller’s latest audio blog below to learn more about this week’s spectacular blooms and then get your tickets in advance to see them in person… especially the pinapple lily!

The Garden relies on generous donations from our Members, visitors and community to keep access to our 87 acres open for all and to provide unique horticultural experiences that help people find connections with nature. Please help us continue this mission for years to come by considering a gift to the Garden. You can do so here.
