NYBG Shop

I recently attended Orchid Nights at the New York Botanical Garden, and as someone who visits the gardens a few times a year, it’s always a place I enjoy for a peaceful walk and a chance to reconnect with nature especially during orchid season. This visit felt a bit different, though. Orchid Nights seemed much more crowded than I’ve experienced before, which took away a little of the intimacy I usually love about the exhibit. Even so, the display itself was absolutely stunning beautifully arranged and still very much worth seeing. Afterward, we stopped by the gift shop. I’ve popped in before, but this time we really took our time exploring everything. They have a wide variety of items fragrances, soaps, candles, plants, unique planters, books, kids’ items, and branded merch like hats, tees, and totes. There were definitely some really cool and unique finds. That said, the pricing caught me off guard. I completely understand that purchases likely support the gardens, which I appreciate, but some items felt a bit over the top. For example, I picked up a simple embroidered hat thinking it would be a practical (and supportive) purchase on a rainy night only to find it priced at $68.

One of my favorite place to visit when we go to the New York Botanical Garden, in the Bronx, is their incredible shop, conveniently located across from their cafeteria at the main entrance. What’s wonderful about the shop is they have the best selection of wonderful books, gifts, house plants as well as all kinds of planting tools as well as great children’s gifts!

I wish I had more time to explore the entire Garden but made sure to visit the Van Gogh Florals Exhibit and the Conservatory. The Conservatory smelled so fresh and clean like herbs and spices. It's very peaceful and a good way to enjoy nature's natural beauty. Visiting gave me a sense of more value to life and appreciate the outdoors more.

Great selection! This place is so much bigger than it looks. Fun garden items. Loved the substantial book section. So many outdoor and house plants. Loved the selection of pots. Picked up a few bulbs to plant - wish they came from the NYBG - but what a nice momento from our visit to the garden!

Beautiful, amazing, peaceful, incredible, place to visit. Each season in this park has its own beauty. I love it mostly during spring and fall. Highly recommend to all New Yorkers and visitors of NYC.
