HIGHLIGHTS & GARDENS
Half of our specialty gardens are new this year! There are many rare and exotic flowers in new garden settings that will capture your attention. As we have done in the past with the Fish out of Water fountain and last year's giant beehive, this year will mark our tallest feat ever as you are welcomed by two 14-foot-tall giraffe topiaries. Other highlights include:
The African Garden boasts a blend of unique flowers and plants such as acacia and gerbera. The garden will also feature the giant giraffe and zebra topiaries in the Main Aisle. The Black & White Garden reveals a cutting-edge method of gardening. Showcasing roses, tulips and daffodils that are shades of dark purples, deep reds and whites, the garden radiates a simplistic beauty. The Ramble Garden was inspired by plants and trees from New York's Central Park. Take a walk through "our park" as the dogwoods, forsythias and ferns enchant you.
The Jardinière Garden displays an array of exotic pottery that is accented with stunning potted flowers. Each pot has a beautiful mini-planted bed of flowers including peonies, freesias, gardenias and snapdragons.
The Community Garden features a magnificent collection of gorgeous flowers including hydrangeas, azaleas and tulips. What makes this garden so special is that it will be replicated in a New York City community courtesy of our Flower Show provider, Ireland Gannon.
