While there are a few more weeks of summer, we are already seeing signs throughout the Garden that fall is on its way. And with cooler temperatures in the morning, we can also feel the transition happening. It’s one of our favorite season to take a walk in the Garden. Listen to Georgiann Keller’s latest audio blog below to learn more about some of the early fall blooms we are seeing, including the bright pink foliage on the silk floss trees. Georigann also walks you through some exciting new plantings that the Garden’s horticulture team has been hard at work on. Once you’re done listening, make sure to grab your tickets to see it all in person!
