Dr. Rossi has asked us to remind folks to bring a cart if they have one.  There are a few carts for use at the garden, but bringing your own will eliminate a wait.  The forecast has a decent chance of rain, so bringing an umbrella would be a good precaution.  We look forward to seeing everyone there.

Even before we opened at 9am, the garden was buzzing with activity. (9 photos)

When we finally opened, some familiar faces showed up to fill their wagons with new plants.

Dr. Rossi leads the Tour de Freeze, showcasing the palms that performed best and worst during the cold outbreak that dropped the garden to 21.5F.

You can't say the Central Florida folks aren't adventurous, with Rhopalostylus planted.  The baureri didn't handle the event as well as cheesemanii.

I completely missed the Rhopalostylis, we had to run ahead of the tour and leave fast, but still had a... Fun drive home in the storms.  Some amazing survivors, and if anyone visits dont miss the old growth natural forest area in the back, it was also well worth seeing.  We talked to someone there and he was telling us about the future plans, im looking forward to another visit some day.
