Nursery Tour

The Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center is opening up its greenhouses for a Nursery Tour on Saturday, September 5, and it's one of those rare chances to see the behind-the-scenes side of the place. Most of us only ever walk the public trails, but this one takes you inside the greenhouses, where the nursery staff leads the way through the areas where the plants are actually grown and cared for.

It's a guided tour, so you're not just wandering through on your own; you'll have the people who work there on hand to talk you through what they're doing. The tour is geared toward adults, which means it's set up for people who want to lean into the details rather than a fast-paced walk-through. If you've ever wondered how the Center manages its collections or what goes into keeping those greenhouses running, this is where you'll get the actual answers.

The tour is part of the Wildflower Center's Speaker Series, so it fits into a larger calendar of programs they run throughout the year. It's a morning thing, starting at 9 AM on Saturday, September 5, at the Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center in Austin. Admission is $0.00, so it's free to join.
