Irises and Amaryllises

Even though they’re not at their peak bloom yet (as far as I can tell), there were already many more varieties of irises blooming at the Botanical Garden since the last time we visited.

The Linnean house is also in bloom, but with many kinds of Amaryllis!

So many beautiful flowers to see every time we visit!

More Spring Flowers at the Botanical Garden

We were back at the Missouri Botanical Garden today, where the azalea bushes are in full bloom, and the irises are just starting to open:

The late tulips are making their last stand, and the dogwoods are still in their full glory…and there are many other beautiful flowers, too!

We got to visit the Children’s Garden for the first time this year, and the children had a blast. They’re already planning when we can go back so Moose can join us!

Every day at the Garden is a beautiful day!

Yet Another Spring Day at the Botanical Garden

We visited the Botanical Garden again today, and we got there right after a rain shower. The flowers looked extra cool with rain drops on them!

Even though we were just there a week ago, there were so many new things to see (as always):

I love seeing how the planter outside the beautiful Tower Grove House changes.

The children had a great time!

The Botanical Garden membership is definitely the best membership we’ve ever had…we never get tired of visiting, and we learn so many new things each time we’re there!

Another Early Spring Day at the Garden

Even though we visited the Missouri Botanical Garden less than a week ago, there were so many new flowers to see when we went there today!

We’re looking forward to seeing the Japanese cherry trees and the tulips bloom…hoping at least one of them might be ready when we visit next week!

Chickadee Thursday

We went blackberry picking again today. Chickadee loves blackberries!

We also went cake-hunting this afternoon:

And Chickadee took some time to stop and smell some flowers!
