The rock garden in May
New York Botanical Garden · 16 May 2021
Candelabra primulas along the stream - the pink and magenta tiers - with ferns unrolling behind them.
A rock garden is an odd, artificial thing when you look at it squarely: an assembly of alpine and woodland plants from several continents that would never meet, arranged on stone brought in to imitate a mountainside. It works because those plants share a requirement rather than a home. All of them want sharp drainage.
Birds, insects, plants and other wildlife, mostly from Brooklyn, with some from further afield.
