April is slipping away - here are some Garden highlights you won't want to miss.

Marsh Marigold (Caltha palustris)

Bright and cheerful, these sunny blooms are lighting up the edges of the pond in the Water Pavilion. A perfect springtime sight!

Perennial Garden Waterfall

No matter how many times I visit, the magic of this waterfall never fades. It’s a must-see, especially with spring in full swing.

Chokecherry (Prunus virginiana)

A true Utah native! These lovely flowers will soon give way to berries that ripen from red to deep black. Like all Prunus species, the pits are poisonous — enjoy the fruit, but be sure to skip the seeds (just like you would with cherries!).

Silver Siberian Bugloss (Brunnera macrophylla 'Looking Glass')

Delicate clouds of blue flowers shimmer and dance in the spring breeze, creating a dreamlike display.

Tulip (Tulipa cvs.)

A rare sighting of Tulips in the Garden! Tulips are hard to grow at the Garden, as squirrels like to dig them up for a tasty treat.

Don't let April pass you by without a stroll through the blooms.
