An Onslaught of Flowers & Greenery

A breath of spring, if not tropical summer air, from Krohn Conservatory in Cincinnati, OH. I have lots of pictures I want to post - this is why you get six at once right here :)

Not sure what the poofball trees were really called.

A type of fern that hugs tree trunks.

A colorful cactus.


From the orchid house.


A view back through the desert house.

"Regular" flowers :)

A great set of pictures Ash... I have been thinking about glasshouse shots... there's a great garden nursery not far from where I live maybe I should go see

Jules said...

Thanks for the Birthday wish, Amy. It's been one of my best!

Amy, why am I not surprised that you of all people could find flowers to shoot in the middle of winter? By they way, they are beautiful.

Oh man does that look warm! Looks so inviting right now. These are great places to go in these winter months. Great shots.

This looks like a wonderful place! Thanks for sharing these photos.

Oh... and I really liked the photo of The Skyline from the last post. Nice photo! (And now I am hungry for a coney!)

Have a great week!

I really like your work. I have just started taking some pictures of nature in Iowa. I would love it if you would take a look. Any comments or suggestions would be appreciated.
