Alpine House Open House

What is a trough made of? Why are the plants so small? Drop by the Alpine House to chat with our experts as they share the art of trough gardening and answer your questions about these diminutive plants. Usually viewable from the outside only, the public will be welcomed behind the scenes on Earth Day Weekend to get more acquainted with Wave Hill’s extensive collection of alpine plants. Severe weather cancels. 

Registration is not required. Drop in anytime during the event. Questions? Please email us at information@wavehill.org or call 718.549.3200 x251.

The route to the Alpine House follows a mixed-material pathway with varying elevations, and the Alpine House itself is not wheelchair-accessible. Access to the Alpine House requires using stairs with no railings.
