  • Backgrounder: the New York Botanical Garden's Legacy Of
    Moore in America: Monumental Sculpture at The New York Botanical Garden May 24 – November 2, 2008 Backgrounder: The New York Botanical Garden’s Legacy of Natural and Designed Landscapes The New York Botanical Garden, a 250-acre site that has been designated a National Historic Landmark, offers a wealth of beautiful landscapes, including a hardwood Forest, ponds, lakes, streams, rolling hills with dramatic rock outcroppings carved by glaciers, and New York City’s only freshwater river, which runs through the heart of the Forest in a magnificent rock gorge. These picturesque natural features have been further enhanced by more than a century of artful plantings, gardens, and landscapes designed by the nation’s leading landscape architects and garden designers. As a result of both its natural and human legacies, the Botanical Garden today offers an exceptional setting for outdoor sculpture. Scenic beauty and stunning natural features Following the New York State Governor’s approval on April 28, 1891, of The New York Botanical Garden Act of Incorporation, a site needed to be selected for the location of this new educational and scientific institution. Selection turned to an undeveloped park in the central Bronx. In 1887, a published description of this area notes, “it would be difficult to do justice to the exquisite loveliness of this tract without seeming to exaggerate…gigantic trees, centuries old, crown these summits, while great moss and ivy-covered rocks project here and there at different heights above the surface of the water, increasing the wildness of the science.” An 1893 newspaper account describes the romantic vistas of an old stone house, snuff mill, and other artifacts of previous land use, while surrounded with “almost every tree known to the American forest in the Northern clime.” The underlying bedrock, dark gray Fordham gneiss, shapes many rock outcrops, rolling hills, and steep slopes, ranging from 20 to 180 feet above sea level.

  • Agriculture and the Future of Food: the Role of Botanic Gardens Introduction by Ari Novy, Executive Director, U.S
    Agriculture and the Future of Food: The Role of Botanic Gardens Introduction by Ari Novy, Executive Director, U.S. Botanic Garden Ellen Bergfeld, CEO, American Society of Agronomy, Crop Science Society of America, and Soil Science Society of America The more than 320 million Americans alive today depend on plants for our food, clothing, shelter, medicine, and other critical resources. Plants are vital in today’s world just as they were in the lives of the founders of this great nation. Modern agriculture is the cornerstone of human survival and has played extremely important roles in economics, power dynamics, land use, and cultures worldwide. Interpreting the story of agriculture and showcasing its techniques and the crops upon which human life is sustained are critical aspects of teaching people about the usefulness of plants to the wellbeing of humankind. Botanical gardens are ideally situated to bring the fascinating story of American agriculture to the public — a critical need given the lack of exposure to agricultural environments for most Americans today and the great challenges that lie ahead in successfully feeding our growing populations. Based on a meeting of the nation’s leading agricultural and botanical educators organized by the U.S. Botanic Garden, American Society of Agronomy, Crop Science Society of America, and Soil Science Society of America, this document lays out a series of educational narratives that could be utilized by the U.S. Botanic Garden, and other institutions, to connect plants and people through presentation

  • The Green Patch
    Northeast Nebraska Master Gardeners The Green Patch Cottage Gardens By Robin Jones , Madison County Master Gardener Old-fashioned plants and flowers have been making a big comeback recently. For someone like me who loves historic homes and Victorian style, this is right up my alley. With a little creativity and planning, you can design a cottage garden of your own. Cottage gardening started in England and was originally meant to oppose the very ornate, formal grandeur of English January 1, 2014 estate gardens. Cottage gardens are informal and densely planted. Their charm is that they look unplanned and rustic. Imagine flowers and vines weaving together as though they sprung up on their own. You will need to choose flowers, greenery, and traditional ma- terials when you plan your design. Flower-lined paths, shrub- bery and borders that go right up to the house, vine-covered fences and arbors all contribute to your look. The most common flowers in a cottage garden are roses. After that, diversity is key to creating the cozy, inviting charm of Volume 6, Issue 1 this style. Lavender, daisies, hollyhocks, foxglove, peonies, phlox, and snapdragons are good choices. You’ll want to choose flowers that grow tall and look a little wild. By selecting two or three hues and working with the various shades along their spectrums, you will have a harmonious color scheme that doesn’t look too deliberate. Purples, pinks, and blues with occasion- al pops of bright yellows and oranges make a good mix. Next you will want to work in your greenery.
