Rose Garden & Ornamental Conifers Tour

New York Botanical Gardens: Rose Garden & Ornamental Conifers Tour:
Take a virtual stroll through the Bronx Botanical Garden's enchanting Peggy Rockefeller Rose Garden and the lesser-known Ornamental Conifer Garden in this video by Bronx Naturalist.

The Peggy Rockefeller Rose Garden, designed by Beatrix Farrand, boasts vibrant blooms in late May/early June and again in September. Even in the off-season, the garden's peaceful atmosphere and artistic touches inspired by Alice in Wonderland make it a worthwhile visit.

Learn about the garden's history, including its completion thanks to David Rockefeller in the 1980s based on Beatrix Farrand's original designs.

The video also explores the Ornamental Conifer Garden, a tranquil haven featuring various conifers that stay green year-round. This hidden gem is a favorite among joggers and offers a serene escape amidst the bustling Bronx.

Bronx Naturalist highlights interesting facts about the conifers and points out the American Elm, a giant tree often missed by visitors taking the tram's quicker route.

So, whether you're a nature enthusiast or seeking a quiet escape in the Bronx, this video tour of the Peggy Rockefeller Rose Garden and the Ornamental Conifer Garden is a must-watch!
