Tropics at the Kansas City Zoo

Bryn Takle of the Kansas City Zoo shared with the members of the Hort NetWORK "The Trials, Tribulations & Joys of Zoo Horticulture." Bryn and his staff do an amazing job keeping up with 200+ acres at the zoo.

This planter greets guests at the entrance to the zoo.

We toured the zoo's newest exhibit - Tropics, an indoor rain forest. The wildlife is great. But, we all loved the tropical plants.

Hort NetWORK's next gathering is August 26 at Powell Gardens for Field Day.
