Back to: Trip to Bountiful 2010

The Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center in Austin, in conjunction with Texas Highways and Canon, presents The Serendipity of Wildflowers 2010, an exhibit of exceptional wildflower photography in its McDermott Learning Center, May 3-9. Selected from among the wildflower images shown in this issue, the enlarged photographs will be mounted in a gallery setting, allowing visitors to experience them in an extraordinary way.

The center also hosts its annual Gardens on Tour on May 8 (the Saturday of Mother’s Day weekend). Activities include tours of selected private landscapes, as well as the center’s cele-brated gardens. Wildflower Days, which began March 15, continues through May 31 and features a full slate of events emphasizing family activities. The Spring Plant Sale & Gardening Festival takes place April 10-11; more than 300 species of native plants, including flowers, shrubs, and trees, will be on sale, and native-plants experts will also conduct guided tours of the gardens.
