The days are getting longer and we’re inching closer to the official start of spring. In fact, the spring equinox is this Saturday! And in perfect timing, more and more of the Garden is coming alive. The Bohannon Rose Garden is showing signs of reawakening with the Peggy Martin roses in full bloom. And the beautiful wisteria above the Japanese Garden patio is beginning to bloom as well. The Garden is also undergoing some changes. Visitors will see new plantings in Palm Circle and along the Promenade. While work is still being done, you’ll start to see the vision as it comes to life. Take a listen to Georgiann Keller’s latest audio blog to get a full picture of what to expect in the Garden this week. And don’t forget, our dog walking hours are this Sunday!
