A Growing Distinction: The World of Zoo Horticulture at the NC Zoo

Our Guest
Katie Davis, Interior Horticulture Supervisor and Arthur Knott,
Horticulturalist at the North Carolina Zoo

Did you know the North Carolina Zoo is now officially accredited as a botanical
garden by Botanic Gardens Conservation International? Our zoo is one of only a
few facilities nationwide to hold the dual distinction of both zoo and botanical
garden. How was this designation earned, and what exactly is zoo horticulture?
In this talk, we'll investigate the niche world of zoological horticulture through
the eyes of staff at the world's largest natural habitat zoo.
