| Little families
of cacti snuggled everywhere. |
|
|
| Some made me
want to stroke them, like a cat. But I didn't. |
|
|
| Others looked
like strange, alien vegetables. |
|
|
| There were
so many different varieties and they were all lovely. |
|
|
| The Cactus
Room was very popular (and crowded). |
|
|
| I spied a bunch
of bananas growing in another room. |
|
|
| And oh, the beautiful
Angel's Trumpet flowers - they were amazing. Apparently they are
'particularly aromatic' at dusk, presenting their flowers to bats
and moths for pollination purposes. |
|
|
| There was also
a display of Carnivorous Plants. These are Cobra Lilies. |
|
|
| And this one's
a type of a PItcher Plant. Insects fall in, attracted by the nectar
and drown. |
|
|
| Here's a different
variety of Pitcher Plant. |
|
|
| Everywhere we
looked, there were interesting shapes and colors. |
|
|
|
This included
flowers outside in the beautifully-kept flower beds, like these
fuchsia.
Volunteer Park was a lovely
surprise for me. I had no idea it was such an interesting place,
and I hope to return and check out the Art Museum soon.
