Morning Eye Candy: Horn of Plenty

Posted in Photography on September 9 2015, by Matt Newman

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!

Is this a hint of fall’s approach? Regardless, we’re hanging onto late summer’s vivid greens for as long as we can!

Morning Eye Candy: Fondness

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.
