Missouri Botanical Garden: Plants in Bloom
AT A GLANCE
November 30 - December 6, 2001
-
Autumn foliage of some Japanese maples remains colorful. The foliage
of Oakleaf hydrangea (Hydrangea quercifolia) and Virginia sweetspire
(Itea virginica) throughout the grounds provide excellent late color.
-
The arduous task of winterization has begun, but some roses in the Gladney
and Lehmann Rose Gardens are still showy.
-
It's not unusual to find a few Reblooming tall bearded iris flowering in
the Jenkins Daylily Garden at this time of year.
-
The rich colors of autumn paint the walled Moorish garden in the Shoenberg
Temperate House. Bright salmon cyclamen (Cyclamen 'Halios Bright
Salmon') 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).
Camellias are featured in the hanging baskets.
