(aka Valentine flower).  For such small blooms,
they make a pretty big statement—I know I look
forward to their arrival every spring.

Pretty in Pink

The tree peonies have come and gone, and
they were spectacular from beginning . . . to end.

The Bluebell Wood

It's that time of year, when the
bluebells are in bloom at the
Brooklyn Botanic Garden. They're
pretty sweet on their own ...

and just amazing when you
multiply them by 40,000-plus.

There are dozens of tulip cultivars
blooming in the botanic garden right now,
some of an orange so vibrant it almost hurts.
This one stood out in its subtlety.
