A quick wave hello to one of Daisy’s Flower friends- Rosie the Rose! Although not yet in bloom, our Thursday scouts learned that social distance is best when it comes to Rosie’s prickly stems. Scouts are safely back in-person following partner Girl Scouts of Nassau County protocol, right here at OWG

The Lilacs are in full bloom this week! Our collection ranges from white to the darkest purple with every shade in between.
Our Rosarian, Gaby, has done a lot of work in our Primrose Path over the last three years. Additions of new primrose, anemone, and bluebells have extended the bloom period significantly and have created an utterly enchanting walkway. Full bloom is NOW! Don’t miss it!
