To tell the story of this forgotten season, we took a walk through the wintery Denver Botanic Gardens. Now, let the colors, textures, and feelings of winter transport you to a new experience of year-round landscape beauty.
After years of landscaping, gardening, and growing plants in Colorado, I have finally come to appreciate the beauty of the winter garden. Time collects; all the growing is preserved in the forms, colors, and textures of the plants. I hope this inspires you to spend longer looking into your garden in the winter.
The garden exposes a different way to comprehend time. Each season brings its own composition of color, texture, and experience, and each plays its role in the holistic beauty of the space. We participate in the toil, the work, the tending—and in its time, the garden reveals its beauty.
