The New York Botanical Garden welcomed thousands of visitors today for its annual Rose Festival, celebrating the peak bloom of over 650 varieties of roses in its historic Peggy Rockefeller Rose Garden. The event featured live music, guided tours, and hands-on gardening workshops.
“This is one of the most enchanting times of the year,” said NYBG President Jennifer Kim. “The Rose Garden is a living testament to the beauty of nature.”
Visitors marveled at the vibrant colors and fragrant blooms, with many sharing photos on social media. The festival runs through the weekend, with proceeds supporting the garden’s educational programs.
