Brooklyn residents looking to take home a piece of the tropics, won't have to travel far.
The Downtown Brooklyn Partnership is for the first time, selling the tropical flowers that decorate the parks and medians around the neighborhood every summer.
The group is hoping that it can find new homes for all of its seasonal plants before winter sets in. They can now be purchased at a discount at Albee Square.
Money from the plant sale will go right back into the partnership's beautification fund for next year.
