There’s not one, not two, but THREE trumpet trees blooming throughout the Garden. These trees, particularly the hybrid trumpet tree on the Upper Meadow, are spectacular sights right now and are not to be missed. Don’t let the rainy forecast keep you away from these latest blooms, along with many others. Visiting our 87 acres in the rain – or just after a rain – is a unique and special experience. The flowers seem to glisten with the rain drops on their pedals, the grass seems a little greener, the air a little crisper and the puddles make for some fun puddle jumping!
