It is beautiful here today. Just in case you can’t make it out of your office to hop a train and come up to the Bronx, I thought I’d take a walk and snap some pictures for you. It’s more than just beautiful out, too. According to one birder I met today, it’s also prime warbler migrating time. As he put it, the next two weeks will be “warbler heaven.” So whether you’re a birder, photographer, gardener, or walker, now is the time to come and visit the Garden!
It is prime time for taking flower pictures at the Garden. So grab your camera and come visit!
Magnolia Way: just a few more days, and all this gorgeousness will be gone.

So much more below including cherry blossoms, incredible tulips, and the amazing Rock Garden.

The forecast calls for it to touch 70°F today (but sadly to drop back down to around 50°F for the weekend). This beautiful stretch of weather has brought out some of spring’s most beautiful flowers. From crocuses, to flowering apricots, and even the very first daffodils, flowers are springing into bloom all over the Garden. So if you can get away, come for a visit today! We’re just 20 minutes north of Grand Central direct to our own Botanical Garden Station on Metro North‘s Harlem Line!
