ABOUT
Delaware Center for Horticulture
The Delaware Center for Horticulture is a non-profit community organization dedicated to spreading a love of gardening conservation through its garden projects and workshops. The teaching garden lets guests study a diverse range of plants, and educational workshops are offered on different elements of horticulture and ecology. The DCH’s Display Garden is open for picnics and for those who wish to study the vegetable and ornamental plant displays. Workshops are designed with participants’ age and experience in mind, and are a great way of illustrating the importance of nature while also exercising participants’ own green thumbs. The DCH also offers a library and an art gallery.

Botanical Garden Lesson Plan
FUN FACTS
The diverse world of plants is perhaps the weirdest, and most fascinating, of all living things. Bamboo can grow over three feet in one day (you can literally watch it grow). There are 600 species of carnivorous plants, which trap and digest insects, frogs, or small birds (if a vegetarian eats this plant, are they still a vegetarian?). The world’s largest flower, Rafflesia, can grow up to three feet in diameter (how big would a bouquet be…). Do a little digging on your next trip to a botanical garden (not literally!), and see what interesting plant facts you can find.
