FOR ADULTS AND TEENS AGES 12-17
Step into a sea of color as you explore 13 acres of azaleas and rhododendrons on this informative and inspiring tour. Tyler’s Wister Rhododendron Garden is home to one of the largest and most significant rhododendron collections in the country, featuring hundreds of varieties and species. With blooms stretching from spring into early summer, the garden offers a stunning display of nature’s artistry. Join Tyler Docent Nancy Heinbaugh as she unveils the history of this hidden gem, guiding you through a kaleidoscope of blooms we expect to see at their peak in mid-May.
About your guide: As an experienced docent, Nancy enjoys sharing many aspects of Tyler with others, including the gardens, collections, and history. She is especially interested in explaining the relationships between plants and insects, whether at the Pollinator Preserve, on the trails, or in one of the meadows.
