Missouri Botanical Garden: Plants in Bloom

AT A GLANCE

June 09, 2000 - June 15, 2000

• The magnificent grove of Bottlebrush buckeye (Aesculus parviflora) on the Knolls is beginning to bloom.

• Japanese iris are past peak bloom in Seiwa-En, the Japanese Garden and the Goodman Iris Garden, but many are still showy.

• Roses in both the Gladney and Lehmann Rose Gardens are at the peak of spring bloom.

• The heady aroma of Gardenia (Gardenia augusta) fills the Shoenberg Temperate House. Hydrangeas are particularly showy, especially the Lacecap hydrangea (Hydrangea macrophylla 'Mariesii').

• The rich fragrance of Confederate jasmine (Trachelospermum jasminoides) wafts through the Linnean House. The large, colorful foliage of Rex begonias and bright flowers of Impatiens (Impatiens 'Tempo Series') border the walkway.
