Summer is officially closing out this week, but there’s nothing to be sad about. As we officially enter fall, there are new blooms helping to transition the Garden beautifully into this cooler season. From the stunning floss silk trees to the wide array of fruit currently ripening throughout the Garden, there’s something for everyone to enjoy right now. But please remember, while there are MANY fruit trees ripening right now, we are built on a landfill and these fruits are not to be eaten (though, you may see some leftovers on the ground from the wildlife that calls the Garden home!). Take a listen to Georgiann Keller’s latest audio blog below and then make sure to get your SOAR tickets so you can enjoy these latest blooms and our new butterfly exhibit!
