Something mystical has wandered into the garden… leaving giant footprints in its wake. From November 22, 2025 through May 18, 2026, step into a realm of imagination and come meet the colossal creations of Thomas Dambo’s TROLLS: Save the Humans. They have roamed far and wide, but now Basse Buller, Ibbi Pip, Kamma Can, Ronja Redeye, Rosa Sunfinger, and Sofus Lotus are on a quest to share their wild wisdom with the Omaha community.
Crafted from reclaimed wood and a whole lot of creativity, these gentle giants bring big personalities and even bigger messages about protecting the environment. As you wander the outdoor garden paths, keep an eye out for all six of these towering troll ambassadors and uncover each of their stories as they touch on themes of recycling, sustainability, and preserving nature.
Come explore their whimsical world with general garden admission tickets or unlock even more magical visits with garden membership.
Created by Thomas Dambo. Produced by The Imagine Team.
