Missouri Botanical Garden: Plants in Bloom

AT A GLANCE

June 27 - July 3, 2003

• The fragrant Bottlebrush buckeyes (Aesculus parviflora) are at peak bloom. Enjoy the magnificent grove along the Tram path just south of the Climatron® Geodesic Greenhouse.

• Daylilies are in full bloom in the Jenkins Daylily Garden.

• Lilies are very showy in the bulb gardens.

• Sacred lotus (Nelumbo nucifera) are starting to bloom in the Japanese Garden.

• Roses throughout the Garden are showy.

• Enjoy the rich aroma of gardenias (Gardenia angusta ‘Mystery’) in the Shoenberg Temperate House. Look for the beautiful blossoms of the caper vine (Capparis spinosa); the capers you eat are the flower buds of this plant.

• Impatiens (Impatiens walleriana ‘Dazzler Series’) brighten the beds beneath the camellia trees ) in the Linnean House.
