The countdown to spring is underway and tulips and hyacinths are starting to show their green leaves above ground. It's just about time for Tulsa Botanic BLOOMS - our annual celebration of spring with over 100,000 blooming bulbs! New this year is our most complex planting design in the Tandy Floral Terraces - "Rays of Light" which features over 70 different tulip varieties.
Tulsa Mayor G.T. Bynum and Mr. Ray Tullius, vice-chairman of the J.E. and L.E. Mabee Foundation were special guests as Tulsa Botanic Garden celebrated the opening of the J.E. and L.E. Mabee Grange with a ribbon cutting on Friday, December 8.
The 4,500 square foot building is part of the Botanic Garden’s capital campaign, “Reaching for Generations”. The Garden successfully met a fundraising challenge for a grant from the J.E. and L.E. Mabee Foundation for construction of the building.
