Ready for Spring: Park Place/Underhill Avenue Block Association Newsletter

pdf.jpgREADY FOR SPRING. Cilla Ehly, PPUABA President, writes about a recent trip to the Brooklyn Botanical Garden in the March 2005 newsletter: “My friend John and I visited the Botanical Garden on Saturday. The semi-arid glass house was fragrant with rosemary and a variety of South African cowslips, gladiolas and other flowers. A weeping bottlebrush tree was blooming and a variety of flowering shrubs contributed to the lovely scented air. In the tropical house, papayas, cocoa pods, coffee berries and an amazing sickle plant with purple points up and down its flower… If you can get there this weekend, I think the papayas will be ready for eating.”
