\"Paeonia<\/a>It may seem hard to believe<\/a>, but signs of spring are all around us here at the Garden<\/a>. The Chinese witch-hazel<\/a> has unfurled its sunny, yellow streamers<\/a>, the Magnolia kobus<\/em> near the Visitor Center<\/a> is covered in buds, and there’s still a faint glow in the sky when we all head to Botanical Garden station<\/a> to catch the 6:04 p.m. train back into the city. But, this is not to say that we all couldn’t use another assurance that spring is on its way. And isn’t the promise of being taught how to arrange the most gorgeous, fragrant spring flowers–lilies of the valley, muscari, lilacs–by two of Brooklyn’s most sought-after florists<\/a> the very thing to raise your spirits?<\/p>\n

The Adult Education department<\/a> at The New York Botanical Garden<\/a> is very pleased to announce three new floral arranging classes<\/a> to be taught by Sarah Ryhanen of Saipua<\/a> and Nicolette Owen of Nicolette Camille<\/a>, known collectively as The Little Flower School<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The first class, <\/strong><\/a>Fragrant Flowers<\/a><\/strong>, will be held on Wednesday, May 16 from 6-9 p.m in Manhattan at our Midtown Center<\/a>. The class will focus on the art of layering flowers, not just to form a pleasing arrangement, but also to create an amazing aroma.<\/p>\n

On Saturday, June 4, from 10 a.m.-3:30 p.m. join Sarah and Nicolette at the Garden for From Garden to Vase<\/strong><\/a>. The class will begin with a curator-led tour of the Garden, and then after a break for lunch students will head inside to make wild, lush arrangements inspired by the Garden and featuring some very special cuttings from the grounds!<\/p>\n

From Garden to Vase<\/strong><\/a> will be repeated on Sunday, September 11 from 10 a.m. – 3:30 p.m. to take advantage of fall’s beautiful flowers, fruit, and foliage.<\/p>\n

We are so excited to have Sarah and Nicolette joining us for these amazing classes at the Garden! Space is limited, so be sure to register for one, two, or all three<\/a> soon.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
