The Empire State Building from the High Line. Oudolfian grasses and perennials are a major feature of the planting. |
In other areas the High Line is planted with woodland plants, but perhaps Magnolia macrophylla was not so wise a choice. |

That mosaic plant is lovely - I don't think I've ever seen it before.
ReplyDeleteAs stated by the previous commenter, I have never seen or even heard of the Mosaid Plant. It is amazingly beautiful and I’m intending to try cultivating it within the fish pond in my backyard. Can’t wait to get started.
ReplyDeleteAs far as tomatoes are concerned, I had planted 6 tomato plants about 2 years ago and this year they produced enough to feed my entire neighborhood and then some.
