Join us at the Delaware Botanic Gardens for a private tour for customers of Inland Bays Garden Center. Your tour guide will be Stephen Pryce Lea, Deputy Executive Director (Horticulture). DBG is closed to the public on Tuesday so our group will be the ONLY guests at the gardens.

Enjoy a picnic lunch catered by Kristina’s Kitchen in the gardens after the tour.
You will see the world-renowned Piet Oudolf 2-acre meadow which blooms from June through fall with 70,000 perennial plants & grasses. The other areas you will also see are:
•The Folly Garden features the original homestead of the farm with 40,000 flowering bulbs, annuals, perennials, shrubs, and trees as well as our new reflecting pool.
•Endangered and restored habitats such as the non-tidal freshwater wetland and learning garden, vernal ponds, and a re-created ancient inland dune biome.
•Whimsical creatures, magical places, hollies galore and our living shoreline restorations in the 12.5 acres of woodlands, gentle paths, and edge gardens.
•Abundant butterflies, birds, and other pollinators -- a part of a package of environmentally sustainable initiatives that also features an award-winning living shoreline, a rain garden and green technology bathrooms.
• The Rhyne Garden in the parking area is an example of parking lot and storm water run-off management. In 2020-21 the Rhyne was planted with 12,000 native perennials, 300 shrubs, and 36 red maples.
•The Inland Dunes, Charles Anderson Family Holly Tree Collection, the Hedgerow Garden, and the Azalea Collection are other areas of interest.
