Garden of Long Island

“Flowers take many forms. Each takes a story, 

each entirely precious and unique. Each is the best, 

each will teach us to love, nurture, and let go.

Not every garden blooms. Tears take place of rain. 

They surface on the air.”  Call the Midwife

Long Island expansive, dense populated, and unique.

From Roses of Roosevelt to the Marigolds of Massapequa 

Long Beach Lillies to the Daffodils of the East Hills

Hempstead Holly hangs towards Oceanside Orchids

Bellmore bushes of Jasmine to the Hyacinth of Hicksville 

Amityville Azaleas to the Plainview Primrose

Quogue’s Dahlias to the Irises of Islandia

Violets of Valley Stream to the Lavender of Locust Valley

Peonies of Patchogue to the Camellias of Carle Place

Zinnias bloom on the way to Floral Park as Lloyd Harbor holds Aster.

Long Island life like the flowers and towns names,

each with history and a story to open.
