New York Botanical Garden

Today I thought I’d share some photos from a recent trip to the New York Botanical Garden!

I had never been before, but it was especially interesting to visit during the current Cosmic Nature show featuring beautiful installations by Japanese artist Yayoi Kusama (check out NYBG’s gallery here).

Of all the different gardens and areas to explore, the Conservatory was definitely my favorite:

I don’t often find myself in the Bronx but was happy for the chance to check out the gardens between My Morning Jacket shows a couple of weeks ago! I was especially psyched to see so many pollinators - bees, swallowtails, and monarchs by the dozen.
