“Get Wet 2026!" will feature a presentation by Reed and Cole from True Pump on how to select and maintain the proper pump for your water feature. Choosing the right pump is critical because it dictates the entire health of your pond’s ecosystem. It also contributes to the visual beauty of a perfectly tuned waterfall or stream.

Bring your own pond questions and come to our first event of the year to get your pond off to a great start! Canna tubers and plant fertilizer tablets will be available for sale, and there will be a drawing for some pond-related door prizes.

The event is free to attend. If you are not a member of Denver Botanic Gardens, let them know in the Visitor Center when you arrive that you are here for “Get Wet” and proceed to the Boettcher Memorial Center. Gates Hall is directly ahead from the entrance doors in the back part of the building on the left.
