Join Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center during Roots & Wings for the second annual opening of “Power the Migration: A Monarch Exhibit"!
Stop by on October 21st from 10am - 12pm for a special monarch themed activity to mark the beginning of the Roots & Wings Festival! Visitors to this exhibit will have the opportunity to get a close-up look at live monarch specimens as they journey through their life-cycle, learn about the monarch migratory route, observe monarch lookalikes, and explore the cultural significance of monarchs in Hispanic heritage and Dia de los Muertos celebrations.
Also take home valuable tips and tricks for cultivating pollinator gardens and monarch waystations in your homes as you view our demonstration gardens. Guests will have a chance to view photography by Theresa DiMenno as part of their recent show, “Delicate Balance: Metamorphosis of the Monarch Butterfly".
Most importantly, guests will learn how they, too, can support these endangered creatures by cultivating and protecting native plants for pollinators.
