Walk on the Wild Side

Plants bring people together. Plants can inspire us — and teach us things too. We’re hoping that you’ll join us on a Horticulture Staff tour that will meet the third Thursday of each month, April through October. We’ll be looking at trees and shrubs, perennials and annuals, natives and tropicals, even aquatic plants. Each staff member will pick their favorite plant of the month, each month. We’ll give a bit of science (botanical names and culture) but we’ll also be telling stories and fun facts. Each staff member will give a two-minute explanation of why that plant is their favorite and then we’ll move on to the next plant. The route will be a bit different each month to include a stop at one of our interesting Alebrije installations!

If you’d like to join us, please meet at the Visitors Center. There is a $5 fee per person and registration is required for this walk.
