Around the Grounds with Bennett:
It’s officially fall, the ideal time to plant spring-flowering bulbs. While bulb planting may seem tedious now, the reward comes when those bright blooms emerge in early spring, bringing hope and beauty to your garden after winter’s chill.
The Houseplant Sale is Back! The Welcome Center & Curiosity Shop is now featuring an updated selection of houseplants, nurtured with care by 577’s own horticulturists, Samantha Day and Bennett O. Dowling.
Nature blesses us with incredible colors as the growing season progresses, from the cheerful stained glass faces of spring pansies to the jewel tones of late summer cosmos and the fiery hues of the autumn chrysanthemums. We are surrounded by color and, as creatures who appreciate beauty, we try to capture the intricacy and vibrance in our work. Learn how we are capturing their pigments on paper and fabric through the process of eco-printing.
There’s nothing quite like the joy of preserving the beauty of your garden to enjoy all year round. Learn more about 577’s ‘Everlasting’ Garden
