Draw Inspiration for Your Urban Garden by Visiting New York’s Botanical Gardens

Creating an outdoor garden or terrace in the busy city of New York is a great way to calm the nerves and delight the senses. Once the flowers and trees are in and blooming, you now begin to think about adding and maintaining your garden. This requires inspiration and education. Luckily, New York City is home to a variety of botanical gardens that you can visit.

New York Botanical Garden

Located in the Bronx, New York Botanical Garden is more than a garden. It’s a 250-acre retreat housing indoor and outdoor gardens open year round.  Within its walls, you can experience hundreds of roses in the rose garden or bring your child to the children’s adventure garden. From azalea gardens to the conservatory, you will surely get a sense of what you can add to your outdoor garden. Don’t forget to check out the variety of classes — for children to adults — designed to meet all your gardening and arranging questions.
