Lisa Bencivengo shared the following photographs she took at the Arboretum recently. A close-up of the luscious, lemony yellow flowers of Kirengeshoma palmata (yellow wax bells). Read the attached article by Bruce Crawford to learn more about this lovely plant.
Another pretty yellow flower in the Rose Garden behind the Mansion is the richly lemon scented, soft yellow David Austin Rosa ‘The Poet’s Wife’. And, for something different, here’s a photograph of the striking, open seed pod of a Paeonia obovata (woodland peony).
September is a beautiful month to enjoy the gardens at The Frelinghuysen Arboretum; make plans to visit soon!
Thank you Lisa for these lovely photos.
