The fall is an excellent time to stroll down the one double sided block of 28th St and peek into all the flower shops, which are brimming with seasonal inspiration.
There is something so unexpected and delightful in seeing the harsh and dirty sidewalks in bloom. The pumpkins and gourds are full of unique stripes and bumpy textures, while the harvested colored flowers offer fragrance and abundance. Though on this particular day flowers were off my list, as my mission was a fig tree and interesting succulent plantings.
