MBG Plants in Bloom: at a Glance

Missouri Botanical Garden: Plants in Bloom

Roses are at the peak of spring bloom. Climbing roses in the Gladney Rose and Kemper Fragrance Gardens are very showy. Old Shrub roses in the Lehmann Rose Garden are in full bloom.
Lilies are beginning to bloom in the bulb gardens.
The sweet fragrances of Linden (Tilia spp.) and Persimmon (Diospyros virginiana) trees perfume the air in many locations on the grounds.
The tiled Moorish garden in the Shoenberg Temperate House is illuminated by the vibrant colors of bright coral Geraniums (Pelargonium x hortorum ‘Designer Hot Coral’, yellow Gerbera daisies (Gerbera jamesonii hybrids), maroon Coleus (Soleonstemon hybrid ‘Oxblood’) and chartreuse Creeping Jenny (Lysimachia nummularia ‘Goldilocks’). Be sure to look for the beautiful blooms of the Pitcher plants (Sarracenia species) in the carnivorous plant bog.
Enjoy the rich aroma of star jasmine (Trachelospermum mandianum) in the Linnean House. Impatiens (Impatiens walleriana ‘Dazzler Series’) brighten the beds beneath the camellia trees.
