Rogillioville Posted April 18, 2023 Report Share Posted April 18, 2023 New plants were brought onboard Sunday (April 16) and already being put out in Central Park. I'll post pictures later in the week when they are further along. For those that don't know we lost almost all the plants during a hard freeze a few months ago.

jbrinkm Posted April 18, 2023 Report Share Posted April 18, 2023 We were on Allure two weeks ago and it looked like this: A crew member told us they had done a lot of replanting in mid-March. There were still some empty places - probably where they are putting the plants you showed us - and the trees weren't great. They were all either brown or had no leaves at all. And the trellis wasn't fully filled back in, but the overall impression was green, which was great.

CruiseGus Posted April 20, 2023 Report Share Posted April 20, 2023 Gelashe and Mark are doing a great job bringing Central Park back. Apparently Miami is still discussing whether the trees will be replaced for the Presidents cruise in July, or more cost effectively when ship returns to Ft Lauderdale later this year, being replaced by Harmony at Galveston. jbrinkm and Cactus527 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skipper Posted May 4, 2023 Report Share Posted May 4, 2023 Happy to hear about the replanting! The trees and topiary are a significant part of the the look and feel of Central Park. It would be a shame if they were not replaced soon. Central Park is a special area on the ship and the Allure of the Seas Central Park was amazing due to the trees age and growth. Its sad to think that was lost in the freeze! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scary but that shadow box in the middle of Central Park looks like ME behind a shower curtain. Cannot get that ugly image out of your head now can you? reanna, WAAAYTOOO, Vancity Cruiser and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LizzyBee23 Posted June 9, 2023 Report Share Posted June 9, 2023 It was pretty green last week! Needs a few finishing touches, but it's most of the way there. SebagoSue, luv2sail and Xaa 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
