MBG Plants in Bloom: at a Glance

Missouri Botanical Garden: Plants in Bloom

Autumn foliage remains colorful throughout the grounds. Maples in the Japanese Garden are especially noteworthy.
Eastern witchhazels (Hamamelis virginiana) are now in bloom. The large specimens in the Jenkins Daylily Garden are very fragrant on warm, sunny days.
Many roses in the Gladney and Lehmann Rose Gardens are still showy.
The rich colors of autumn paint the walled Moorish garden in the Shoenberg Temperate House. The fuzzy orange flowers of Lion's ear (Leonotis leonurus) are complemented by deep red coleus (Solenostemon scuttelariodes 'Oxblood').
The earliest of the camellias are blooming in the Linnean House, giving a hint of the glory to come this winter. They are accompanied by the sweet aroma of the Fragrant olive trees (Osmanthus fragrans). Double impatiens (Impatiens walleriana 'Fiesta Salmon Sunrise') and camellias (Camellia sasanqua 'Bonanza' and 'Sho-no-sakie') are featured in the hanging baskets.
