While some plants take this time of the year to rest, there are some plants in the Garden that are just starting to bloom, including our chocolate daisies that actually smell like chocolate! Listen to Georgiann Keller’s audio blog below and check out the photos to learn more about what’s blooming in the Garden, then bundle up and come see (or smell) these blooms for yourself.
