Just east of College Avenue across from the south end of the main Colorado State University campus is the Annual Flower Trial Garden.
Under the supervision of two horticulture faculty, students and volunteers plant and tend thousands of flowers to evaluate their suitability for Rocky Mountain growing conditions, with most of the seeds and plants submitted by plant companies interested in the university’s high-quality research program.
I took a set of pictures from the center of the garden to stitch together into a panorama when I’m back home and have more CPU power and a larger screen, so for now I’ll let a few snapshots speak for themselves.
