Rare plant finds, curated offerings, and specialty selections come together for Botanica — a reimagined summer evening experience celebrating plants, community, and the beauty of the Garden.
Inspired by TasteBud, Botanica shifts the focus from food tastings to a more plant-forward experience. Stroll the grounds as you browse specialty plant offerings, discover one-of-a-kind items in the live auction, and enjoy curated bites and beverages from local businesses. The evening creates a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere where you can mingle, connect, and experience the Garden in a new way.
Guests in select tiers enjoy early entry, an exclusive private reception featuring specialty bites, and a guided tour with Mark Konlock, Director of Horticulture. Early access also includes first opportunity to bid on items and explore specialty offerings before other guests.
Garden cocktail attire encouraged.
