Inside The New York Botanical Garden

Sometimes we find inspiration in a puddle, or in a blade of grass, or in a single tree. And sometimes, we look up.

The holidays are photogenic: all those sparkling lights and (glögg-induced) rosy faces! It’s a time that screams for grampa to pull out his old film camera, for auntie to stick a Flip in your face, and for mom to beg the entire family to pose in those special reindeer sweaters she managed to find in everyone’s size. But not every holiday photo need be awkward.
Here at The New York Botanical Garden we’ve got photo ops aplenty, and they’re all beautiful! But there’s no need to take our word for it. Just ask any of the 250 members of The New York Botanical Garden group pool on Flickr. Or, better yet, take a look at some of the beautiful photographs that our visitors have posted on their own! And then, if you like what you see, you can join the group (by signing up for Flickr) and begin uploading your own shots from around the Garden.

If Mark Rothko worked with the moisture that collects on the inside of the Conservatory, this is what it would look like. We think.

It’s an Azalea Garden of another color: Yellow. No, we’re not genetically engineering plants here at the Garden, we’re just planting for year round color. This new garden won’t open to the public until next Spring, but we’re hoping this beautiful image will entice you to come visit the Azalea Garden both when it opens and a year from now!

It’s the last weekend to experience that spectacular beauty of Japanese Chrysanthemums in the Nolen Greenhouses. Instead of closing today, this amazing exhibition will remain open until November 29!

Happy Friday! It’s nearly the weekend, which means we’re just one day away from the opening of the Holiday Train Show. Here’s a little heart puddle to brighten your day.
