Hi Carolyn — Per Jon Peter, the Garden’s Manager of Plant Records, the white one is Kolkwitzia amabilis – beautybush. Apt, no?

Carolyn — The pink one is indeed an Azalea, ‘Hinomayo’ to be exact (it’s a personal favorite of mine, I greet her by name as I walk through the Garden). I’ll have to look up the other one, and I will try to get back to you! — Ann

When I visit the NYBG I can’t miss strolling in the rock garden where I am certain to experience serenity, fragrances, pleasing waterfall sounds and picturesque reflections: all so powerful in soothing my senses! Thank you for creating such a healing and spiritual place.

Beautiful images. What are the shrubs? The pink one looks like an Azalea. The other??? Perhaps a Deutzia? Thanks.

I love this tree, I know exactly where at least one of them is located. It has equally beautiful flowers in early spring.

We’re all just tougher in the evolutionary maelstrom of the city, humans, plants, pigeons, etc. and now… salamanders. This looks like such an incredibly cool project for a high school student.
