Change is in the air; there’s not a moment to waste in the garden. Join us on Wednesday, February 1 from 9:30 to noon, our team will be demonstrating pruning techniques in the Rose Garden and answering your questions.
We have already started pruning the roses and salvia; this annual task ensures proper rejuvenation of our flowering favorites.
The buzz is back, honeybees are beginning to be active around the gardens.
Your nose will tell you that the Daphne has opened up, and the fragrance is wonderful. Look for these beautiful hellebores in the same bed across from the Garden School, these plants share an appreciation for partial shade.
Even after the ample rains earlier this month, we are already thinking ahead to the dry season. Our team is testing our irrigation system—funny how it never comes back on the way you left it when it was turned off! There are moments when it’s more of an irritation system than an irrigation system.
The buds on our deciduous trees and shrubs are swollen and waiting for just the right amount of light and warmth to open up.
