Four solar panels at the Kemper Center for Home Gardening have been installed to offset the power required to run the floral clock.

They supply clean, renewable energy to the Garden’s electrical grid. Visitors are invited to monitor the solar power production from a computer inside the Kemper Center for Home Gardening.
