Artworks from the collection of Colorado-based seed and garden products company Botanical Interests LLC highlight the unique connection between art and nature in flower, vegetable and herb seed packet design. Seeds of Inspiration features 21 contemporary artworks alongside early 20th century garden catalogs, seed boxes and other materials from Denver Botanic Gardens’ Helen Fowler Library. On view in the Freyer – Newman Center January 18 – May 20, 2025. Included with Gardens’ admission.

The artists use colored pencils, watercolor and watercolor pencils to render highly detailed botanical art. Some artists draw from live specimens provided by Botanical Interests. Because these artworks were made for marketing purposes, they depict plants in their most perfect form with enhanced colors and shapes. Several featured artists are instructors at or former students of the Gardens’ School of Botanical Art & Illustration.
