A Good Start for 2009

I don't know if you are one of those people who likes to make a list of resolutions for the new year but whether or not you made a list, resolving to visit the Wildflower Center is always a good way to start a year.

To make that even easier, the Wildflower Center is open for visits during regular hours at no charge beginning with their after the holidays re-opening on Saturday, January 3rd.

This gives gardeners both avid and beginning plenty of opportunities to do post-holiday shopping at the Center's store without entering into Mall Madness.You can also enjoy a delicious meal at their Cafe or if you aren't up for spending, gaze at the artwork on display.

According to their website, "Come pick up a 2009 Wildflower Wall Calendar, view wildflower artwork in the McDermott Learning Center starting January 10, or visit with Matt Turner, author of "Remarkable Plants of Texas," from 1 to 4 p.m. in the store during Tree Talk Winter Walk."Pretty nice invite. You know you want to go!

Our weather is supposed to be warm and welcoming for a bit.Get yourself to the Wildflower Center today.

The Center is open Tuesday through Saturday, 9 a.m. to 5:30 p.m., and Sunday, noon to 5:30 p.m.
