Rhododendron Curator Paul Wieczoreck invites you to a delightful walk around our beautiful Rhododendron collection in full bloom. In this collection, most plants are more than 35 years old and are some of the largest specimens growing in northern Vermont. They represent a part of our historical past and are much like what would have been estates of the early 20th century. Bring your questions and your camera and enjoy this spectacular display of blooms with refreshments after the tour. Class limit is 25.
