Our most popular member benefit from 2018 has returned on a regular schedule! Extended member hours, now called “Lantern Hours” are now offered on a monthly basis throughout the garden’s open season.

These members-only moments are a special time to enjoy the serenity of a quiet garden. As the garden grows in popularity and crowds increase, we want to provide our members the opportunity to enjoy a peaceful walk before or after the garden’s regular hours.

October is the most popular month to visit the garden. The autumn maples are beautiful, the weather is crisp and still sunny, and the crowds in the garden can get pretty large. Enjoy a quiet morning under the red and gold leaves before the garden opens to the general public.
