Wildflower Week NYC celebrates its 3rd Anniversary in New York City this week with a bunch of events that will make you think differently about wildflowers, or at least make you stop and smell them! Some of my favorite places in the five boroughs are the designated sites for tours for wildflower week, such as: Battery Park, Brooklyn Botanical Garden, Queens Botanic Garden, Liz Chrystie Community Garden, along with several others. Ever wondered about how plants survive on the High Line Park? Go to the Tuesday lunchtime tour with High Line gardeners, where you can learn about the park's unique horticultural design and the challenges of tending a garden on old elevated train tracks. Want to see how you can put a green roof on an arts space in the East Village? Check out Alive Structure's lovely rooftop garden at Wild Project Theater.
