December is here and with it comes a fresh winter makeover for the pots in the Courtyard! You’ll find stunning shades of magenta and purple decorating the pots just outside the administration building, adding a vibrant touch to the season. These same gorgeous hues are popping up throughout the Garden, from the Fuchsia collection to the bromeliads in the Greenhouse, creating a colorful escape amid winter. Want to dive deeper into what’s blooming? Check out Georgiann Keller’s audio blog below for all the details. Then, bundle up in your coziest sweater and swing by the Garden to soak up a little winter cheer—it’s the perfect way to brighten your day this season!
