One of my favorite spring and summer activities is to take an appropriate early evening beverage, grab my better half, and head back to the bee hives to watch the girls returning to the hives with pollen. Pollen is a protein source for the bees.

As Director of Horticulture Exhibits and Communications, Cynthia had just completed another successful Orchid Mania event at the Cleveland Botanical Garden and then made time for a private workshop for our members.
Read MoreAsking a gardener to name her favorite things in a garden is absurd; it’s like asking for an encyclopedia. As winter retreats, do I say the voices of spring peepers? The duck’s eggs in my planter? The golden green of the first color to show on willows in spring? It can’t be done. But I know one thing I deeply love this time of year: spring ephemerals.

Read MoreDear Friends,
Happy Spring Equinox 2017! This is the time of year I like to check my flower beds for signs of life, and it never fails to thrill me to see the first signs of green emerging from the soil. I was so pleased to welcome the green shoots until Mother Nature decided to treat us with her recent late winter blast. I’m keeping my fingers crossed that my favorite whimsical Allium schubertii survived the freeze.
Our February program featuring Patrick Blanc, leading expert on vertical gardens (INSERT LINK) was a huge hit. Approximately 300 people attended Patrick’s educational and fascinating presentation at the Cleveland Museum of Natural History.
