Here’s a plant to know about…Seven-son flower Heptacodium miconioides, a large, fountain-shaped, multi-stemmed, deciduous shrub that grows 15-20′ at maturity with a 10′ spread. Fragrant, creamy-white flowers in late summer to early fall. Each flower contains 7 tiny flowers (hence the common name of seven-son flower.) A good source of nectar for butterflies in the fall which provides good winter interest with tan exfoliating bark.
In case you missed the recent celebration and fun, our friends at Greentopia launched New York State’s FIRST EcoDistrict with an Eco Fun Fair on the Pont de Rennes Bridge! No worries! You can still visit the FlourGarden, a 300-foot-long sustainable, native-planted garden, water and fountain works, Broccolo helped create inside an abandoned raceway! Take a stroll and check it out!
