Battery Blooms, August
Ahhhh, August…
The lazy days of summer have arrived in The City That Never Sleeps. The steamy, stagnant air has its grip on lower Manhattan, broken only by the occasional cool ocean breeze from the New York harbor or a cantankerous thunderstorm from the mainland.
Balmy spring afternoons long gone, many plants in the Battery’s gardens are biding their time until next year, but not the gems featured below. Visit the Battery as it bursts with summer color and interest.
