Cool and cloudy weather today made for a pleasant stroll around the grounds. There were Gardeners working in the various flower beds, visitors wandering around enjoying the sights and lots of plants blooming in a variety of colors, textures and shapes. A beautifully blooming Viburnum plicatum (Doublefile Viburnum) emerging from a bed of Hostas, the gorgeous blossoms of a sweetly fragrant Rosa x cv. Mme. Gregoire Staechelin (Climbing Rose Cultivar), spikes of yellow Baptisia x sphaerocarpa cv.

A lovely, sunny May day – so much to see and enjoy. Many different colors of Columbines are blooming in the gardens, as well as Azaleas and Irises surrounding a bench where you can rest and take it all in. The Tulip show may be over for this year, but do some exploration and discover your own beautiful blooms!

Thanks to Litsa Balaska for these beautiful Spring pictures of the Frelinghuysen Arboretum.

The Tulip show at The Frelinghuysen Arboretum has been truly spectacular this year, close up as well as from a distance. However, as we all know, all good things must come to an end, so as the show dwindles, please enjoy these lovely photos taken by Heather Emelander.
