The Dallas Arboretum is excited to announce the return of Peter Rabbit in costume Friday, July 16 and will be available for photos every hour, on the hour from 10am-3pm in the Hoffman Family Gift Store through the end of Summer at the Arboretum, July 31. If you missed your chance to take a great photo the first time he was here make sure you stop by as Peter helps the Arboretum close out its newest festival.
Under a canopy of pecan trees, four topiary Flower Houses will create a serene themed village, bringing four beloved Beatrix Potter™ stories to life. The houses of Peter Rabbit™, Mrs. Tiggy Winkle™, Mrs. Tittlemouse™ and Jemima Puddleduck™ will enhance the festival experience for young visitors and their families. The four Flower Houses of Peter Rabbit's™ Flower Village will capture the imagination of children of all ages. Named for each of four Beatrix Potter™ stories depicted, the thatched-roof, English-cottage Flower Houses will invite children to explore inside, where they will find components that help to depict the story's theme, and encourage them to exercise imagination and a sense of fun. The Flower Village and story themes will advocate the cause of literacy by helping to foster a love of reading and by encouraging young children and their families to read together.
A Summer Oasis …
The Arboretum is in full summer bloom May through July with bursts of color and lush tropical foliage. Peter Rabbit's™ Flower Village located under a canopy of shaded Pecan trees creates a serene photo opportunity and place to picnic in the shade. The Palmer Fern Dell misting system will cool you off while you enjoy a leisurely stroll. And don't miss the spectacular Crape Myrtle Allee as it blooms into an awning of pink.
