Sensory Garden

Visit a garden with ALL of your senses.
Tangy mint smell. Velvety flowers. Giant sandpapery leaves. Visit a garden with ALL of your senses, and you experience the plant world in a totally different way.
Meet our horticulturalist

Get tips from our horticulturalist Bryon Jones and be awed by the power of plants at Point Defiance Zoo & Aquarium. If you can't make this event, check out the others he's leading.
