How Flowers Became a Universal Symbol of Peace and Love

This summer at the New York Botanical Garden, visitors are invited to bask in peace, love, and psychedelia of the hippie culture of the 1960s and 70s, symbolized so strongly by flowers. Flower Power opens to the public on May 23 and runs through October 18. Patrick Nowak, NYBG's Manager of Exhibition Operations, discusses what visitors can expect from the show, ranging from archival photos and paintings from the 1960s, and of course a variety of psychedelic flower displays.
