This week’s What’s Blooming starts in the Children’s Garden with new blooms and caterpillars galore! The variety in bloom right now is abundant, from irises to purple butterfly bush and the most stunning bougainvilleas you’ll see all spring! Plus, we introduce you to the most adorably hugging tree – which is actually two separate trees, a palm tree and fig tree, that are growing together. Find out more by listening to Georgiann Keller’s audio blog below!
