Fidos After 5 is the second Thursday of each month (July 11 & August 8) when leashed pets are invited as well. $2 suggested pet admission benefits the Richmond SPCA.

  • Flowers After 5 is rain or shine; in case of extreme inclement weather, activities will be moved inside.

  • The Garden Shop is open until 7pm.
  • The Conservatory is open, but the Butterflies LIVE! wing is closed as butterflies tend to roost in the evenings. Come back and visit them during the day when they are more active!
