The 37-acre Delaware Botanic Gardens at Pepper Creek will open to the public for its eighth season at 9 a.m., Thursday, March 19, as announced by Ray Sander, board chair.
“Spring brings a colorful display of over 200,000 bulbs planted throughout the gardens to greet our visitors. Welcome to a new season of nature’s delights,” Sander said.
Sheryl Swed, DBG executive director, said, “We have a new 3,300-square-foot Annette Penonni Meadow Pavilion and Gallery Garden, both available to rent for community and private events. Please come join us and hold your next event in a beautiful garden setting at DBG.”
“Come celebrate the vernal equinox at Delaware Botanic Gardens! Our living collections are waking up after a long winter rest, and our bulbs, spring ephemerals and flowering trees are budding with excitement, ready to put on a spectacular display,” said Christine Justice, DBG director of horticulture. She noted that the gardens will offer free admission Saturday, April 18, for an Earth Day celebration.
The gardens, at 30220 Piney Neck Road. Dagsboro, are open from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., Thursday through Sunday. The DBG’s mission is to provide a world-class garden that delights visitors. Learn more at delawaregardens.org.
