About
Love plants? So do we! And since we love the resilience and beauty that a diverse landscape can bring, this Cinco de Mayo we thought we'd take you around the garden and show you some of our favorite Mexican plants. Join our Curator Dennis as he shows off some of the tough and drought-tolerant plants you might expect from our neighbors to the south, as well as muchas flores bonitas that brighten up the garden while supporting our native wildlife. Dennis is notorious for his fun facts and plant trivia, so be ready to learn a thing or two while you expand your botanical horizons!
