  • nybg For a multi-sensory experience on a grand scale, keep your eyes and ears (and nose) open for Styrax obassia, aka fragrant snowbell, at the end of Daylily Walk opposite the Conservatory. This fragrant tree will be literally covered in these intensely scented blooms by this weekend, and the Garden's pollinators can't get enough of them. In fact, you might hear this tree before you smell or see it. It is an experience like no other!   1d
  • ja_s0n I was going to come today but the weather made me skeptical! Soon!!   1d
  • wavehill Our Wisteria is the same way right now...sensory overload in the best way possible!   1d

  • nybg Are you familiar with Davidia involucrata? Also known as the dove tree and the handkerchief tree it is currently blooming near the Mosholu Gate entrance. It has a, shall we say, unusual, fragrance, but is worth seeking out for its super cool flowers nonetheless.   1w
