“Alpine Holiday” Opens At The Botanical Conservatory
This year’s holiday exhibit “Alpine Holiday” opens Saturday, November 20 through January 2, 2022 at the Foellinger-Freimann Botanical Conservatory, 1100 South Calhoun Street.
Imagine the sting of snow on your cheek, the brilliance of dusted slopes and the fragrance of mountain pines. The Botanical Conservatory’s version of the Alps offers a bold glacial display that will have you basking in the cool blues of winter offsetting the rich deep colors of holiday poinsettias. Find yourself winding down a mountain path and admiring the scenery from the porch of a snow-capped ski hut. If you get in deep powder, all you have to do is give a “yodel-ay-hee-hooo!” Sponsored by PBS Fort Wayne and Majic 95.1 WAJI.
