The Garden has new blooms throughout its 87 acres, and with the rain this week, we’re sure more are on the way! From pink trumpet blooms, blue Chinese forget-me-nots to a variety of fuschias, find out what you’ll see on your visit this week in Georgiann Keller’s latest audio blow below. And don’t let the rain keep you a way. In fact, one of our favorite times to be in the Garden is during light rain. Wear some rainboots and come jump in puddles and look at the glistening flowers. But that’s not all, there’s more reasons to visit in the rain which you can see in our Guide to Enjoying a Rainy Day in the Garden.
