Howdy effuryone! Welcome to Nature Friday, where we can meet some new friends and maybe share a picture or two of what nature looks like around Blogville.
Even though it is still chilly outside, Mama is pining for some warmer weather. Last week, she went to the Atrium at the ABQ Botanical Gardens to see what trawpical flowers she could find to help warm her up!
She found some pretty purply pink orchids....
Some bromeliad....
and this cute little succulent with some water droplets....
Unlike Mama, we like the cooler weather and are hoping we get some more snow before Winter ends!
Let's see what else Mama found!
This pretty ivy wall, with a colorful bromeliad
...Some very white cyclamen
A very pink orchid......
and nothing says tropical like a
Hibiscus
....unless of course it's actually an Amaryllis BOL
We hope you enjoyed our little trip to the tropical Atrium of the Botanical Gardens. Mama is always surprised at their foliage and beautiful flowers.
The weather sure has been topsy turvy in the world today. Are things in your corner of Blogville warming up yet???
Whether it is warm or cold where you are, we hope you all get to see some nature this weekend!!!

ReplyDeleteWhat glorious blooms to brighten up NF!!! Much needed the side, where it continues to just various (possibly 87) shades of grey... hugs and wags, YAM-aunty xxx
Maybe the 6 of us pups should take a road trip to the mountains to play in the snow for a week? Nelson says he would drive and take care of all us girls. Enjoy your taste of winter while we last and the flowers are pretty but we too want more winter still.
ReplyDeleteOMDs tell mama thank you very very much for the virtual trip to the technical color tropics at the Botanical Gardens. Purrsonally Rosy I thought your tropical head band was most beautiful too

the ivy wall and that stunning burgundy red hibiscus are my favorites. I just yesterday looked up how much it cost to go to Ringling Museum, Jungle Gardens, Selby Gardens, all 10 to 12 miles from us. they have all that ivy wall things and tons of exotic plants. last time I went they were all 12 dollars each... now they are all 25.00 each. oy vey
ReplyDeleteYou two girls look totally beautiful and those flowers are all so pretty!
ReplyDeleteYour mom sure found some beautiful flowers, but nothing compares to you two wearing your flower crowns. We finally got some snow and hope it stays around for a few days.
ReplyDeleteJava Bean: "Dada says those pictures remind him of the botanical garden in Balboa Park, which has been closed for remodeling for a while. I'm not sure if it's open now. They haven't been to Balboa Park for a while."
ReplyDeleteLulu: "No snow here, of course, but we can see it on the mountains in the distance! Maybe someday Mama and Dada will take me to see it ..."
They are all beautiful
ReplyDeleteIt was nice to see the pretty flowers, Rosy. It was a beautiful day here yesterday, but today it is freezing! XOX Xena
