Where are you at 7 a.m.?

There’s a group of people already here at Lewis Ginter Botanical Garden—the horticulture staff and some volunteers. Horticulturist Peggy Combs is one of these early-risers and she caught this beautiful shot of a sunrise with the Conservatory in the foreground. Thank you, Peggy, for sharing this with us. (I have to admit, it’s a view I am not likely to see in person!)

People often ask me how many people work in the gardens—and are amazed when I tell them it’s about a dozen staff members (plus some seasonal help and interns) and a corps of dedicated volunteers. If you’ve visited Lewis Ginter Botanical Garden, you’ve certainly enjoyed their extraordinary talent and hard work.

Beside the obvious cooler temperatures, what do you love about mornings in your garden?

Beth Monroe is public relations director at Lewis Ginter Botanical Garden.
