Thousands of world-famous rhododendrons in over 100 varieties offer an explosion of spectacular blooms throughout Heritage. Photograph yourself surrounded by walls of flowers, immerse yourself in the story of Heritage’s fascinating rhododendron legacy on a self-guided walking tour and learn proper plant care and pruning techniques at our hands-on Garden Discovery Cart. You can also take home one (or more!) of these gorgeous plants from a special plant sale! There’s even a fun activity highlighting these amazing plants designed just for kids and families! All extra rhododendron-focused activities are free with museum admission or membership. No advance registration required.
