Wave Hill Weekly Events (Apr 10 – Apr 17) | Afternoon Tea & Winter Workspace

 

Greenery and rocky terrains lay the ground for our plants at the Alpine House. This wonderland of whimsy sits alongside the wild garden with hidden gems scattered about. Blooming pastels decorate vines and curly stems, while poppies outstretch their blushing hues towards the skies and bluets delicately dance closer to the soil. Step into this tiny world and explore the diverse world that works to help every plant thrive and flourish, each with a different personality and exciting nature from the last!
