Selecting an attractive, easy-to-grow groundcover can sometimes become quite a chore. Red Butte has a diverse selection of groundcovers growing throughout the Garden that you can reference to help decide what you want in your own garden.
As the Garden springs back to life in leaps and bounds, one flower always makes a statement, the Penstemon. Their tall and stately flower stalks are coming alive with color and a sea of pollinators in nearly every corner of the Garden.

The beauty and bounty of spring are in full display in the Garden now! If you have the chance to treat yourself to a stroll through the Garden, take a moment to enjoy our new display along the Great Wall. We think you might really lichen it.

Can you believe it? It is already mid May and before you know it, the year will be half way through. If you haven't visited the Garden yet, there is no better time than now. Besides lilacs, there are viburnums, crab apples and many perennials that are blooming their little hearts out.
The garden is full of the wonderful smells of spring! From the sweet, fresh aroma of our lovely lilacs to the subtle scent of the crab apples, a walk through Red Butte Garden is a special treat this time of year.
This is a wonderful time to visit the garden! The daffodils and other bulbs are beginning to reach their pinnacle and buds have started to flower throughout the garden. The sights and sounds of spring abound, even the butterflies have returned.

One of my favorite times at Red Butte Garden is when the flowers in the Natural Area begin to bloom. They pop up along every trail and come in colors ranging from pure white to vivid yellow, intense magenta and brilliant blue.
Spring is an exciting time at Red Butte Garden. We all look forward to seeing the impressive display of daffodils in just about every corner of the Garden.
You can walk almost anywhere in the Garden right now and be surrounded by a sea of yellow.

Color is beginning to show in all places of the Garden, from the top of the Four Seasons Garden all the way down to the Rose Garden and everywhere in between.
