Attendees will be swept away from the grey of winter and transported to the vibrant world of Oz, a multi-sensory experience that fuses floral design, visual arts, and storytelling. Encounter life-sized installations of beloved scenes and characters, alongside fragrant florals and lush greenery as radiant as the Emerald City itself! As part of the 2026 floral showcase, RBG presents Of Wonders Wild and New.
