We are a volunteer run community garden in the Bronx.
We planted Rose Mallow, Zizia, Sea Oats, Blue Bells all in the new tree pit beds that we just built.
We chose to put the native plants there because we think they will thrive in the soil conditions and because they will all bloom at different times. With these native plants, plus extra Iris bulbs, we think that the tree pits will be beautiful year round.
Our goal is to have perennials in the treepits as well as in the flower pots outside the garden, so that when the neighbors pass through on the sidewalk in front of our garden, they are surrounded with plants year round.
Our garden members and volunteers will take care of the plants. Find out more at morningglorybx.com
