Plants are great, but it's the people that make our garden special.
ONLINE ONLY! Wisconsin is home to over 400 species of wild bees, and more than 120 species of butterflies. As the moon rises, over 1,500 species of moths awaken, ensuring round the clock pollination and these are just the more well-known pollinators! These tiny superheroes pollinate over one-third of our food, making their health and survival a critical component of earth’s ecosystem. Every little bit helps – don’t have space to dig in the dirt – create a pollinator focused container for your patio! Olbrich’s Pollinator Plant Sales offer a variety of perennials with plentiful amounts of nectar and pollen, making them very appealing to pollinator insects! Plant pickup is June 26.
Appreciate your garden from a whole new light — at night! Horticulturist and author of “White Gardens: Creating Magnificent Moonlit Spaces,” Nina Koziol will share how to fill your garden with fragrant white flowers, variegated foliage, native plants and other elements that you’ll enjoy at dusk and beyond. Then take a stroll through Olbrich's own Moonlit Meadow to see these concepts come to life.
