Thanks to Steve Kanan for an update of images from a walk at the Frelinghuysen Arboretum on Sunday, June 5th.

A hazy, hot and humid last day of May; few visitors at the Arboretum today, but a Robin was seen hopping along on the lawn in front of the Mansion. A majestic Aesculus chinensis (Chinese Horsechestnut) is in full bloom, the Enkianthus campanulatus shrub (Redvein Enkianthus) in front of the Mansion is flowering and I saw a striking combination of Deutzia cv. Pink-a-Boo and Veronica austriaca ‘Crater Lake Blue’ (Deutzia Cultivar and Speedwell). Plan a visit soon!

Thanks to Steve Kanan for these lovely pictures of springtime at the Frelinghuysen Arboretum.

Cool and cloudy weather today made for a pleasant stroll around the grounds. There were Gardeners working in the various flower beds, visitors wandering around enjoying the sights and lots of plants blooming in a variety of colors, textures and shapes. A beautifully blooming Viburnum plicatum (Doublefile Viburnum) emerging from a bed of Hostas, the gorgeous blossoms of a sweetly fragrant Rosa x cv. Mme. Gregoire Staechelin (Climbing Rose Cultivar), spikes of yellow Baptisia x sphaerocarpa cv.

A lovely, sunny May day – so much to see and enjoy. Many different colors of Columbines are blooming in the gardens, as well as Azaleas and Irises surrounding a bench where you can rest and take it all in. The Tulip show may be over for this year, but do some exploration and discover your own beautiful blooms!

Thanks to Litsa Balaska for these beautiful Spring pictures of the Frelinghuysen Arboretum.

The Tulip show at The Frelinghuysen Arboretum has been truly spectacular this year, close up as well as from a distance. However, as we all know, all good things must come to an end, so as the show dwindles, please enjoy these lovely photos taken by Heather Emelander.

Today at the Arboretum – 4/27/22

Another cloudy, cool day, but the Arboretum’s grounds are coming alive with lots of color, texture and scents to delight the senses. The Tulips at the entrance to the Haggerty Education Center have changed from an all yellow display to a beautiful combination of yellow, orange and a few deep red flowers; there is a miniature Aquilegia flabellata cv. Nana (Dwarf Japanese Columbine) blooming in the rock garden and a Malus ‘Maypole’ (Columnar Maypole Apple) is in full bloom in the vegetable garden. Make sure to visit soon, you won’t be sorry!
