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

Because Tuesday is the new Wednesday (at least in this three-day week), we thought we’d take a moment to celebrate the sublime beauty of the Japanese Chrysanthemums currently on display in the Nolen Greenhouses. The mums will only be around until Sunday, November 28. Be sure to bring your camera and a great macro lens, and join our Flickr group pool to show us your best shots.
So why not take advantage of your four-day weekend and come for a visit! There’s plenty more going on at the Garden, too. There’s the Holiday Train Show, hikes in the Forest, a theatrical performance of the beloved Golden Book “Tootle the Train,” and plenty of great shopping. Enjoy!

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.

So many fascinating things happen in the Garden’s 50-acre native Forest, sometimes we forget to simply marvel at its age and beauty.

The Peggy Rockefeller Rose Garden is closed for the season. One last look as we say goodbye until spring.

Those aren’t magic carpets. They’re giant rolls of sod.
