Woodland Wildflower Garden

Indigenous shade-tolerant New England wildflowers herald the arrival of spring. The American Wildflower Society Display Garden peak season is in early May.

The Stanley Park Woodland Wildflower Garden, recipient of the Homer Lucas Public

Landscaping Award in 2008 by the New England Wildflower Society, features nearly

200 species of wildflowers and ferns native to North America, in addition to a few

Japanese introductions, each with interpretive signage featuring: Common name,

Botanical name, Family name, Region of origin, and Season of blossom.

Founded in 1988 by present Curator, Charlie Spencer, and the late Edward F. Piela,

for whom the garden is named, the Stanley Park Woodland Wildflower Garden

reaches peak blossom in early May.
