Zilker Botanical Garden will celebrate the opening of its first Garden Gnome Grove on Sept. 19 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. The new fall installation transforms the Oak Grove trails with miniature homes and whimsical displays inspired by garden gnomes. Guests are encouraged to explore the trail, search for hidden details and arrive in gnome- or woodland-inspired costumes for the opening celebration. Garden Gnome Grove is a seasonal counterpart to the garden’s popular summer Woodland Faerie Trail.
