Add a pop of red to your home or office by coming down to Bowling Green park and taking home a beautiful geranium on October 7th!

The Alliance for Downtown New York’s Green Around Downtown initiative continues this fall.  On Wednesday, October 7th, drop by our extremely popular Adopt-a-Geranium event between 10 A.M. and noon at Bowling Green Park.  We’ll be digging up, potting and giving away geraniums to anyone who wants to give one a home.

We’ve also put together some tips to care for your new edition.  So come adopt one of these low-maintenance plants and spruce up your home or office with a dash of color.

No green thumbs required!
