Roughly 3 miles after starting off at Battery Park, you arrive at the High Line.
Persicaria amplexicaulis (I think) and grass.
Stunning, and very surprising (to me) Eremurus stenophyllus.
Planted again and again, with wild quinine (Parthenium integrifolium) in the part called the Chelsea Grasslands.
White echinacea in the new section.
Magnolia virginiana planted as a metal catwalk raises you to mid branch height. Smells sweet.
The High Line, Brooklyn Bridge Park, Battery Park, Hudson River Park. New York as she never was. Destinations for plant lovers. Absolutely breathtaking.
Thanks for the photos of the new section. I hope to get there in the next couple weeks, preferably early in the morning to avoid the crowds.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely lovely!
ReplyDeleteIt made me have another look at the pictures I took last year, it was a lovely day, just like this.
Can't wait to see the new section.
ReplyDeleteThe Highline is amazing. Echinacea is one of favorites. The eremurus stenophyllus is stunning. Have never seen it, must investigate.
