By Joe Parr, Busch Gardens Tampa Bay's Director of Horticulture

In celebration of St. Patrick's Day, March 17, Busch Gardens Horticulture is "putting on the green" with a shamrock-themed color bed at the front steps to the Crowned Colony restaurant in the Cheetah Hunt plaza. The colorful parterre consists of clover shaped zoysia turf panels surrounded by orange and yellow marigolds and edged by a border of genuine shamrocks.
