SUMMARY:PATHS AROUND THE GLASS: A TOUR OF RESILIENT BEAUTY: MAY 13
DESCRIPTION:Step beyond the Conservatory and tour the new garden areas added as part of the Conservatory expansion. “Paths Around the Glass” is a guided outdoor tour that showcases the plants that can not only thrive in Richmond’s climate\, but are designed to provide food and shelter for insects and wildlife.
