The Alpine Garden

The Alpine Garden transports you to the craggy slopes of the Himalayas, the Rocky Mountains, or the Swiss Alps. The harsh, rarified conditions of these high altitudes create an environment for an unusual class of plants. The classic Edelweiss blossoms here in the spring, nestling with misty, tiny pink flowers of the Dwarf Gypsophilia, and the many varieties of Dianthus, with its clove scented, star-shaped flowers. The Alpine Garden presents its colorful, mountainous landscape throughout all of the seasons of the year.
