April brought the native spring ephemeral beds into bloom at the garden, and found me reading a fascinating book about scent, returning to some beloved rituals, blending up fresh batches of our shimmery luminescence (and more!) and adding a veritable bouquet of fresh vintage pieces to the shop.

May is such a beautiful month here in the city. Flowers everywhere! I couldn’t resist adding more spring-themed vintage treasures to the shop to celebrate…
It is such a joy to see our little collection of native spring ephemerals return each year, sprightlier and more established in their places than the year before. The habitat we've created here in the heart of New York City truly feels like a tiny sylvan paradise.
After what could hardly be considered a winter, spring has arrived in the city a little ahead of schedule. The seasonal transition is always such a delicate time.
