I revisited Morris Arboretum the other week and finally got around to the pictures. :) It was a really hot day, kind of uncomfortable actually – so it was nice but hot to be walking around. Better to sit on a bench and contemplate. :) Here are some picture highlights.

Soft, beautiful… I just love pictures that to me come with a sensation.

There’s a beautiful rose garden here, and June is the time to go. :) The roses were looking a little tired but they were kind enough to be just as beautiful for me.

There’s a rose there called the chianti which has this amazing color. I just love it.

There was lots of purple

Being silly

This cool shot of a bee in mid flight

There were a lot more bees around this year than last year. They had a hive which was super cool. I hope that the bee population is recovering, they are very important critters!

The undersides of leaves were sticking out to me

A baby fern

Container gardens – this seems to be much more popular than before.

Or maybe I never noticed them before…

There was this odd thing

Which was made from natural materials, and it’s just mean to be as it is – not preserved or anything. So when it falls apart they’ll replace it with another sculpture. Interesting. You could walk around inside, it was a cool fort!
