The Garden's Horticulture Program Living Plant Museum Just as an art museum can tell you how many Monets it owns and
where a visitor can find them, we are curators, keeping track of
the collections. Growing Plants In our greenhouse and cold frames, we propagate plants for our
collections and plant sales.
We collect
seed from the wild
, propagate by cuttings and division (our current seed
list). Maintenance Staff and volunteers join in caring for the garden: weeding, raking,
watering and planting - the glue that holds this unique and diverse
garden together. Volunteers Volunteers are an essential key to the success of the Horticulture
program. We NEED YOUR HELP! Call Courtney at ext. 105 for details
about volunteering!
The Horticulture Program Mission: Our horticultural mission is to conserve, maintain and develop the collections and grounds of The Berry Botanic Garden using management techniques that benefit wildlife habitat and have minimal effect on the environment. Continuing the legacy of Rae Selling Berry, we focus on growing unique plants in suitable microclimates.
