Here's a video tour of the circle of wildflowers we planted in honor of Oswald and Elizabeth Veblen, whose generosity and love of nature led to Princeton's first nature preserve, Herrontown Woods.
Most woods are largely silent, flower-wise, in late summer, but in the woodland opening of the Barden, where scattered trees allow sunlight to reach the ground, sun-loving native wildflowers of summer can prosper. The video was shot during a pop-up May's Cafe hosted by the Friends of Herrontown Woods.
The Barden is home to more than 150 species of native trees, shrubs, grasses, and wildflowers
