Meet a Clydesdale at the Missouri Botanical Garden

Monday December 15, 2008

You can see more than flowers at the Missouri Botanical Garden this Thursday morning. One of St. Louis' most famous horses, a Budweiser Clydesdale, will greet visitors and pose for pictures in front of the Garden's Linnean House conservatory. The horse is appearing at the Garden before heading to California to the 2009 Tournament of Roses Parade. The St. Louis float in the parade this year will commemorate both the 150th anniversary of the Botanical Garden and the 75th anniversary of the Clydesdales. Congratulations!
