For several years now, a trip to the New York Botanical Garden has been a personal rite of spring. It must be the anticipation of warmer weather and witnessing the miracle of growth.
Here are the flowering plants that I most look forward to:
Cherry Blossoms
Magnolia Trees
Daffodils
A visit to the conservatory is also a must. It's picture perfect on the outside.
And there's lots to see inside and the temperature feels more tropical, allowing a condusive environment for these plants:
It's also where the annual Orchid Show takes place. Orchids from all over the world, in every size, shape, and color!
Being surrounded by these blooms have only inspired me to capture them in watercolor:
Here's wishing everyone a beautiful spring!
The cherry blossoms are all done here in Virginia, but the daffodils and dogwood are still going strong. Pretty.:-) Thanks for sharing your botanical gardens photos!
