or be visiting New York City,

has sprouted a huge blossoming glass flowers by artist Nancy Blum,

 ROAMING UNDERFOOT depicts plants that were chosen from the Madison Square Park Conservancy’s Perennial Collection because of their ability to withstand climate change,


such as Red Buds, Magnolias, Hellebores, Witch Hazel, Daffodils, and Camellia, “Blum’s intent was to capture some of the magic of the nearby park, regarded as an urban sanctuary, and to enhance the station environment for transit riders,” explains the Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) in a statement about the new work, check out more of Blum’s floral drawings and public art on her website, if you are commuting or visiting, what a colorful, bright way to start your day.
