Oso Easy® Paprika Rose (Rosa 'Chewmaytime')
Growing in the Amphitheater, this fiery little shrub has seen its fair share of concerts.
Magic Carrousel® Rose (Rosa 'MOORcar')
These vivid pink flowers greet you along the path in the Rose Garden.
Sunset Hyssop (Agastache rupestris)
You may smell this beauty before you spot it! It's a feast for the senses and a magnet for pollinators. Growing in the Rose Garden.
Summerina® Orange Echibeckia™ (X Rudbeckia 'ET-RDB 01')
This hybrid glows like a mini sunset and, even better news, you don't need a ticket to see it. You can visit it along the Bonneville Shoreline Trail, just outside the amphitheater gates.
Sacred Datura (Datura wrightii)
This is a Utah native treasure. The dramatic white trumpets open at dusk, luring in nighttime moths. This is another one that can be seen just outside the amphitheater gates.
