A gentle spring breeze will coax movement in only the most delicate of plants. Bluestars (Amsonia) are one of those plants. However, even when not gliding like a rocking chair on a southern porch, many species of bluestar exude movement. This long-lasting dance is due to their alternating elegant narrow leaves supported on tall slender stems. In May, plants are crowned with a halo of star-shaped bluestar flowers.

While many New Yorkers are spending the day within close proximity to the nearest AC, our Dry Garden is thriving in today's heat! Layers of lush greenery and violet blooms make this part of the grounds especially radiant right now.

AI may be able to replicate images, sounds, and conversations, but it can’t replace the experiences the natural world provides us with. Whether it’s the shady embrace of a canopy of trees, the echos of birds as their sounds meet our ears, or the stillness of a garden in bloom, nature can only be understood by being fully present within it.

It was such a pleasure to welcome Bronx Borough Commissioner for NYC Parks, Jessenia Aponte, to Wave Hill today, especially during Bronx Week. So grateful for the chance to spend time in the Garden and reflect on our shared commitment to access, public green space, and serving our community. We’re excited for what we can achieve together and all the ways we can continue to uplift the Bronx. 💚

This Bronx Week, we’re reflecting on the beauty, resilience, and spirit of our vibrant borough.#TheBronxLeads in so many ways, and spring at Wave Hill is just one more reason to love the Bronx. 🌼

Many of our earliest introductions to nature are shaped by the women in our lives. For Fern, that connection began with visits to Wave Hill alongside her mother, making her time here now feel especially meaningful and full circle.⁠

Join us this weekend to celebrate Mother’s Day in the garden with spring birding, community yoga, and a special Family Art Project. Pack a picnic and spend the day surrounded by the beauty of the season.⁠

What's old is new again in our Flower Garden. ⁠
⁠
At Wave Hill historic restoration and innovation intertwine in both the design of our gardens and the treatment of our structures. In 1960, when the property and its buildings were given to the City of New York by the Perkins and Freeman Families, there was a rose garden in front of the Conservatory enclosed by a rustic wood fence. As with many of the garden elements on the property, Mr. & Mrs. Perkins encouraged their staff to look to the resources of the land for supplies—we believe this original fence was made from sticks gathered around the grounds. ⁠
⁠
When Wave Hill was incorporated in 1965, the fence was not immediately replaced, but when it was, a modern and sturdier cedar structure was installed. This new fence had to support the weight of historic roses, last as long as possible, and remain paramount to the design. Photo 3 shows the Flower Garden with a new fence and the original rose garden still in place c. 1975.
⁠
The fence just installed this spring is the third version of this modern structure. Like its predecessors, it is expected to last 20 years. The cedar posts are naturally rot resistant, but over time their contact with the soil causes slow rot. Our native carpenter bees also love chewing through the wood, making nests, and raising their brood. To continue supporting this robust colony of insects, the old fence is being repurposed in our woods as gates and reused in other creative ways. ⁠
⁠
It is important to maintain this historic feature. As Cathy Deutsch, Director of Horticulture put it, “This fence encloses the garden, defining the space as a frame would a painting. This framing affords the Flower Garden a layer of reverence as if you are at a museum where you would see framed pieces of art.” ⁠
⁠
In other words, you can look, but please don’t touch! 🌼
