July 17 - October 5, 2013

After the heat and drought of 2012 that left many landscapes and gardeners stressed, this series, hosted by the Friends of Boerner Botanical Gardens, is sure to revive gardeners’ spirits and give people lots of ideas for revitalizing their landscapes. The series begins on May 15 and runs through October with themes of Spring Renewal, Sizzling Summer Beauties, and Fall Finale. “I’m excited about this series,” explained Myers. “We’ll showcase possible plant replacements, stress tolerant low maintenance plants, and plant combinations to give landscapes a seasonal facelift after last year's challenging season.”

New this year, attendees who bring a new walk participant will receive a free annual membership to the Friends of Boerner Botanical Gardens. Proceeds from the series will support the Friends of Boerner Botanical Gardens’ Children’s Plant Science and Environmental Education at Boerner Botanical Gardens.

Sizzling Summer Beauties - Wednesday, July 17th & Tuesday, July 23rd, 6:30 pm
The annuals are up and growing and summer perennials are in bloom. We will look at new plant introductions and traditional favorites that are thriving this summer that also tend to perform well in Wisconsin's variable weather, giving you plenty of ideas for jazzing up your landscape.

Fall Finale - Saturday, October 5th, 10 am
Fall is a great time to plant bulbs, flowers, shrubs, and trees. And a walk through Boerner Botanical Gardens will help you gather ideas for additions you'll want to add to your landscape now or next season. We will look at multi-season plants that provide interest to the landscape in fall and beyond.

Fall Finale Family Fun Walk - Saturday, October 5th, 1 pm
$25 per family (up to 5 individuals).
We'll explore the touch, sound and smells of the gardens as we find all that fall offers. Our walk includes a scavenger hunt, bark rubbings, leaf prints and a garden activity you'll take home to grow.

Cost: Adult Walks - Members $25/walk; Non-members $30/walk
Family Fun Walk - $25 per family (up to 5 individuals).
