If you’re craving a spring reset without straying too far from the city, there’s a place just outside Houston where time slows down, wildflowers stretch toward the horizon, and Texas history feels vividly alive. Welcome to The George Ranch.

This spring, the Houston Zoo is blossoming with colorful plant displays and special zookeeper chats that focus on pollinators. It's all part of 'Zoo Bloom,' a chance to learn more about the plants that play an important role both here at the zoo and throughout our city. Plus, for the first time ever the zoo will host a public plant sale so you can take home plants from your favorite animal habitat. Watch the full video as Houston Life's Derrick Shore goes behind the scenes at the zoo's greenhouse, where baby cuttings are springing to life.
