With the arrival of cool weather comes no dearth of floral color—this shade-loving toad-lily makes that abundantly clear.

It’s that time of year again—almost a holiday, really—where we pull out the cherry picker and take the whitewash off the Conservatory. If you didn’t know it was fall before, this is your cue!
The whitewash goes on in late spring, when high temperatures and bright sunlight need to be mitigated to keep our plants happy. Come the cooler months, we strip it off to give the Conservatory plants as much sunlight as possible. It’s a refreshing annual swap that signals lots of changes to come as the seasons play out.

It’s the last day of summer. Bittersweet—the Forest’s canopy is never so verdant as it is now—but we’re looking forward to autumn’s novel hues.
