so, i have saved the best (to me) for last. this is my last washington d.c. post and it is WAY photo heavy. there is no way i could leave out any of these gorgeous flowers. i'm so glad we decided to stay a few extra hours and i got to experience this place. this is exactly how i would like my own garden to look. maybe one day. :)
and look!!! a monarch butterfly sighting in the wild!!! i was SO excited!!! it has been years since i've seen one. it's not a great picture, but it's a great memory.
do you see the sleeping monarch?
joining in with annie and "how does your garden grow?"
Fabulous photos! Love the idea of a vertical alpine garden. I'll store that idea away. Your bumble bee has darker wings than I've seen before. I wonder what type it is. Will have to google later. #hdygg
ReplyDeleteLove all those bright zingy colours, looks a beautiful place. The living wall looks really good.
ReplyDeleteLovely photos - I especially like the succulent wall - did you see my succulent I added to #HDYGG last week - I am yet to find out what it is. Also do you know what the black berry is? It looks rather menacing!
ReplyDeletei love the passion flower, it is my favourite plant
