RSS 2.0Today’s blog is a quick “photo essay” ending with a sneak peek at the big news at Lewis Ginter Botanical Garden—the new Rose Garden—opening to the public this Saturday (May 24)!
On any given weekday morning you’ll probably see a visiting school group. Here, one poses for a photo in front of the Conservatory. Lewis Ginter Botanical Garden has more than 16,000 schoolchildren who visit each year—it’s a key part of our educational mission.
It’s time to plant summer annuals! Here horticulturist Laura Sullivan Henley is doing just that along the main garden path. What’s that gorgeous plant with the seed head? Ornamental millet.
Here horticulturist Neil Greishaw (left) and the Garden assistant director for horticulture and education Tom Brinda (right) inspect roses in the new Rose Garden.
And here’s a view of the new Rose Garden. Want to see more? Visit the Garden’s website.
