When you join Friends of Powell Gardens, you can play a personal role in the development of the Gardens and promote an appreciation for the wonders of plant life and nature. The free admission you receive as part of your membership allows you to enjoy the beauty and serenity of Powell Gardens year-round.

• In spring, enjoy the season’s first bursts of color with flowering bulbs, trees and shrubs.
• In summer, wander among the colorful blaze of annuals and splendid collections of iris and daylilies.
• With fall’s cooler temperatures comes a dazzling display of chrysanthemums and brilliant foliage.
• On a crisp winter’s day, take in the quiet beauty of the Garden’s landscape with serene silhouettes and shadows.
