While the Holiday Train Show is the hot ticket for this weekend, opening Saturday, November 21, don’t forget that Kiku: Spotlight on Tradition is still blooming away in the Nolen Greenhouses for Living Collections through November 29. If anything, these chrysanthemums are bigger and brighter than ever, and the ozukuri, or “thousand-bloom” design, makes for an incredible centerpiece.

There’s a flurry of activity in the Haupt Conservatory right now as we set up shop for the 24th annual Holiday Train Show, our biggest ever! Working day in, day out, our horticulturists and the artistic geniuses from Paul Busse’s Applied Imagination are creating an incredible landscape in miniature for the exhibition’s grand opening on November 21.

With the unseasonably warm fall we’ve been having, the Japanese chrysanthemums on display in the Bourke-Sullivan Display House of the Nolen Greenhouses are content to stretch out their bloom schedule. Naturally, we’re all for it—Kiku: Spotlight on Tradition has been extended through November 29!
