Front Office Beds


Click Back to go back to the previous page.
Front Office Bed sign
The front office beds consist of four beds each containing primarily perennial plants but the beds are somewhat dynamic as each Bedhead determines what plants will be featured in their bed each year. Some of the plants may be dormant or just not blooming. Below is a list of the plants below the slideshow of mostly current views of the Front Office Beds that are in or have been rotated into and out of the four front office beds. You can click on the link or image to find more information about each plant.

Mary Christensen
Mary Cristensen
The bed head for the Front Office beds is Mary Christensen. Mary graduated as Master Gardeners in 2014 and became very active and involved right away. Mary took over the Front Office Beds in September of 2018. So here is a great big thank you to Mary and all of the other Master Gardeners that have worked to make the Front Office beds all they can be.

Mary Mahon
Mary Mahon is co-bedhead for the Front Office Beds. Mary officially became a Master Gardener in 2023, but helped out in practically every way imaginable for almost a year before she officially joined. She also is a key player in our plant propagation efforts. So a great big thank you to Mary M for all she does to make our Master Gardens what they are.
