The Greenmarket’s open today ’til 3 p.m., as it is every Wednesday through late November. With fall coming up quick, we’re already starting to see some cool-weather staples—like pumpkins, squash, and other gourds. Don’t miss it, right near Mosholu Gate!

Our yellow magnolias aren’t in bloom right now—this was taken in spring—but Dr. Oliver Sacks seemed fond of them. I can think of no better reason to look back.
Here’s to a dear friend of the Garden, whose amity and wit brightened these grounds in all seasons.

This year’s kiku display is on the move—primarily upwards. These rapidly growing plants are anxious for fall, when they’ll be flowering fully in the Bourke-Sullivan Display House starting October 31.
