PJ's Studio: July 2021

Sunday, July 11, 2021

I was out walking the other day when I spotted some canna lilies - a sure sign of summer.

Seeing them made me nostalgic for the Brooklyn Botanic Garden.

I usually visit a few times a year in the spring/summer. But, Covid.

Hopefully next year I will be able to start visiting again.

Meanwhile though, they usually have some in Central Park in the Conservatory Gardens at 105th Street and Fifth Avenue.

I will have to take a walk over and see if they are in residence this year.

In the spring when I visited looking for tulips I was disappointed to see that they had not been planted.

I guess things were a little rough last fall.

But perhaps they had enough volunteers to plant cannas.

I'll have to let you know. :-)

Cheers!
