For someone like me, who is botanically challenged, I said “Crocuses?,” when we strolled through the Rock Garden in the New York Botanical Garden on Sunday.
And indeed, there is is the Autumn Crocus, Colchicum autumnale, also known as “meadow saffron” or “naked ladies” (tsk, tsk).
Then there were the “animals” in the Children's Garden. We were a bit late in the season for the Rose Garden, but some blooms were still fresh, and oh, what fragrances!'
