So sorry for the delay! I like to say that there's always something blooming at Tucson Botanical Gardens, but in November and December you'll see the fruiting of the grapefruit and pomegranate trees. The Historic Garden will be lush and it's always a treat to explore the Cactus and Succulent Garden. In addition our Luminous Exhibit - an over sized glowing garden exhibit will be on display. Beautiful in the daytime and magical in the evening - we suggest your check our website for special evening hours. If you happen to visit in December, you'll be treated to over 20 Korean Lanterns and more! Enjoy your visit and I hope you come back in 2019 to see the next outdoor art exhibit and the blooms of spring.
