Our members come from Delaware and the surrounding region and bring with them a passion for plants only matched by that of our staff members. With more than 600 active and dedicated volunteers annually, we have a tremendous amount of community support, which allows us to accomplish the impossible.
Winter garden scenes minus the snow. You can keep winter interest in your garden easily by leaving spent flowers standing. Not only do they look pretty cool, but they provide food and habitat for insects and animals.

Our wreath workshops are highly anticipated by our corporate groups and DCH members. Take a look at the creativity from discover.
If you’re planning to make you’re own wreath this year, join us at our greenery sale Dec 2nd 12-9pm and Dec 3rd 10-1pm
A lot of work goes into our holiday greenery sale. 🌲 Large branches need to be processed into smaller cuttings, organized by plant species, and any leftover debris needs to be swept and taken to the woodchipper. That's why we're thankful for our volunteers including the volunteers from M&T Bank for the quick work they made of the piles of holly, spruce, and juniper.

From all of us at DCH, we hope you have a great day celebrating with friends and family. In observance of Thanksgiving, our offices will be closed on Thanksgiving Day and Friday as well.
Our garden and pavilion are open to the public if you'd like to stop by to relax or take a walk. If you visit, you'll find a path from the DCH garden down to the Brandywine trail, we highly recommend this trail if you're looking for an outdoor activity.
Garden blooms have come and gone, but you’ll still find stunning scenes at the DCH gardens during these colder months. You’ll find that we leave cone flowers standing for their winter interest and for birds to feed on.
