Japanese iris are blooming in Seiwa-En and the Goodman Iris Garden.
Roses in both the Gladney and Lehmann Rose Gardens are at the peak of
spring bloom.
The heady aroma of Gardenia (Gardenia augusta) fills the
Shoenberg Temperate House. Hydrangeas are particularly showy,
especially the Lacecap hydrangea (Hydrangea macrophylla
'Mariesii').
The rich fragrance of Confederate jasmine (Trachelospermum
jasminoides) wafts through the Linnean House. The large, colorful
foliage of Rex begonias and bright flowers of Impatiens (Impatiens
'Tempo Series') border the walkway.
