Missouri Botanical Garden: Plants in Bloom

Autumn leaves are past peak color, but many are still nice.
Flower and seed heads of Ornamental grasses throughout the grounds are showy.
The display of mums in the Pring Memorial Garden in Seiwa-En is still showy.
Eastern witchhazel (Hamamelis virginiana) is blooming in several locations on the grounds. Large specimens can be seen in the Jenkins Daylily Garden.
Many roses in both the Gladney and Lehmann Rose Gardens are still showy.
Fruits of the Tea viburnums (Viburnum setigerum) in the Jenkins Daylily Garden are very showy. Fruits of the many hollies throughout the Garden are also quite showy.
The sweet aroma of yellow roses (Rosa 'Sunsprite') and Jasmine (Jasminum tortuosum) wafts through the Moorish Garden in the Shoenberg Temperate House. Also look for the showy Bottlebrush trees from Australia (Callistemon accuminatus).
Fragrant olive trees (Osmanthus fragrans) fill the Linnean House with their rich scent. A few early camellias are blooming, giving a hint of the color that will brighten the house this winter. Camellia sinensis, the commercial source of tea, is in bloom.
