Lynn Neary visits Emily Dickinson’s Garden: the Poetry of Flowers exhibition at The New York Botanical Garden.
The poet Emily Dickinson lived a reclusive life at her family's home in Amherst, Mass., but while she rarely went out into society, she did spend a lot of time outdoors. Dickinson loved nature and was an avid gardener, and now an exhibition at the New York Botanical Garden called Emily Dickinson's Garden: The Poetry of Flowers is putting on display a side of the poet that is little known. -- from “A Flowering Tribute to Emily Dickinson,” by Lynn Neary, NPR Website
