The #PlantWednesday Spotlight is a unique "show & tell" program featuring two captivating topics per month. Meet Lan Su’s horticulture team each Wednesday to explore, learn, and connect with the natural beauty of our Lan Su. These are short 30-min sessions that showcase a horticultural wonder, technique, or tool that our passionate horticulturists want to share with fellow plant enthusiasts. Each session will shine a light on the behind-the-scenes operations of the garden, highlight a plant at its peak beauty, or focus on recent improvements to our collection.
This program is FREE with garden admission or membership. No registration needed.
What to Expect: The #PlantWednesday Spotlight will be held as a casual show & tell at a given location at Lan Su based on each week’s topic. When you arrive, please check in with the front door staff or volunteers for the exact location.
