Love plants? So do we! Early November may not be peak bloom, but the garden is still full of surprises. From lingering flowers to striking seed heads, glossy fruits, and maybe even a splash of autumn color, there's no shortage of interest to discover this time of year. Join us for this Plant-Lover's Tour, where our Research Technician and Horticulturist Extraordinaire, Tim Alderton, will lead us through the garden to highlight his favorite fall standouts. From the bold to the subtle, the fleeting to the enduring, these are the treasures that remind us the garden's beauty never truly fades.
