Lewis Ginter Botanical Garden

One of my very favorite places, Lewis Ginter Bontanical Garden is located in Richmond, Virginia (about an hour and a half south of me).

I'll be spending a bit of time there the next few weeks (I'll tell you all about it in another post) but thought you might enjoy some pictures (all pictures taken by me on March 3, 2007):

You knew there would have to be one of these (a very cool garden bench):

A few inside the conservatory, starting with this tulip garden:

The only rat I'd like in my garden:

Clivia Miniata:

Eucharis Lily:

We'll go outside (I'm saving all the orchid pictures for another time...hehehe) and have a look at these iris reticulata:

We'll look at a very more things in the next post.

  1. I love that butterfly bench! How cool. :)

    And I'm jealous of all of the life you're seeing in your garden already. I'd take the weeds over my leftover snow--they are green, at least!

  2. They're yours! Lol! Done!

    Today was pretty windy and cold. I think it is a reminder that spring in not here...much as I want it to be!

    (I really do like benches!!)

    Nice to see you!

Gotta Comment? Great! Thanks in advance for taking the time. I'll get back to you as soon as possible, assuming I'm not in the garden...because there, I lose all track of time...(Don't you?)...Take care now.
