Back in July, Hurricane Beryl’s surprisingly strong winds left behind lots of leaning and fallen trees at the Garden, as it did all around the metropolitan area. From backyards around town to the curated beds and natural ecosystems of the Garden, the focus has shifted to resiliency and enhancing the health of the plants and trees that made it through the storm.
