New York State or City? Where exactly will you be staying?

Oops forgot they named it twice.

As with every other tourist we will be staying in Manhattan.


Having been born and raised in Manhattan I am somewhat surprised to see
that there are several nurseries listed. You can find them by googling
"plant nursery manhattan ny".

However I think you'll find it worth remembering that the city consists
of 5 boroughs. You'll probably have more luck in Brooklyn (e.g. the
Gowanus Nursery) or Staten Island (e.g. Wiesner Brothers).

Not the place I'd think of to look for plants, but you never know.

While you're there I'd highly recommend a visit to the botanical
gardens, and also the cloisters.
