What’s Happening at the Botanical Conservatory in September

Egyptian Pleasure Garden

Through November 15

Botanical Conservatory, 1100 S. Calhoun St.

Imagine — beauty and shade in the private garden of a prosperous trader in Ancient Egypt. Native pharaohs of the New Kingdom period (1550-1070 B.C.) drove out foreign rulers, re-opened trade routes,     reunited Egypt, and expanded the empire. With new wealth, traders and officials enjoyed luxuries once limited to royalty.

Egyptian Pleasure Garden

Through November 15

By the time of Ancient Egypt’s New Kingdom period, the nation’s wealth allowed for pleasure gardens at the homes of the richest citizens. A pond with colorful fish and lotus flowers, shade trees, palms, and flower beds provided a cool retreat. Fruit trees and grape vines added to the banquet table, while papyrus clustered at the water’s edge. Visitors to our summer-to-fall garden can relax in the shade and admire a distant view of the pyramids. Sponsored by the Wilson Foundation.
