Last weekend we went to the botanical gardens again. (Here is my post from last year, btw; it's fun to compare and see what's in bloom in March vs late April.)

I went absolutely nuts taking photos, to the point where I can't put most of them in the post. Here is my imgur album. I'm putting my favorites here though! Yes it's 10 pictures but the album is.... 98. After I removed some duplicates and ones that didn't turn out. Join me in my enthusiasm for plants :)





















I love going here! It's a little expensive to go all the time, and further away than I'd like (and across the bridge tunnel T_T which is the real problem. It backs up without fail and the construction is not helping). But it's such a beautiful place!! The weather was perfect, and apparently it was a day where they allowed dogs? So there were so many wonderful dogs everywhere sniffing around.

Wow!

The foxgloves and pansies are gorgeous.

My pansies are combinations of purple and white, or purple and yellow/orange, with some solids. I finally scored some Johnny-jump-ups which are purple, white, and yellow to tie everything togehter.
