Missouri Botanical Garden: Plants in Bloom
AT A GLANCE
January 2 - January 8, 2004
-
Some camellias are blooming in the Linnean House. Peak bloom in this
conservatory typically occurs in mid to late February.
-
The sweetly scented flowers of both Vernal (Hamamelis vernalis) and
Chinese (H. mollis) witchhazel bloom on mild sunny days in the Jenkins
Daylily, English Woodland and Japanese Gardens.
-
A few precocious clumps of Giant snowdrop (Galanthus elwesii) blooming
in the Mausoleum and the English Woodland Gardens are testimony to the
exceptionally mild early winter weather.
-
Fruits of hollies are showy at this time of year. Especially noteworthy is
the Winterberry hedge (Ilex verticillata ‘Red Sprite’) in the Kemper
Bird Garden.
