The history of the trees in our landscapes tells a story of ornamental value, human interest, and landscape design. Many of the species in our gardens and green spaces were planted with intention. Tree expert and New York naturalist Levi O'Brien leads this walk that examines the histories of specific Wave Hill trees, discussing the major roles people have played, and continue to play, in celebrating these trees in our lives and our landscapes. 

Severe weather cancels.
