Vacation 4: Olbrich Botanical Gardens













English garden

















Hollyhock













Perennial garden
The Olbrich Botanical Gardens in Madison are well worth taking time for. I've never seen such a wide variety of plants so well organized and cared for.

  3. Nice photos. This must have changed a lot since I was there a few decades ago.

  4. Thank you, Violet. I was thinking I should have mentioned that.

    Pilot Mom,
    Me, too. Our time was too short. And very hot.

    Martin,
    Maybe it's a different place. I looked at the brochure, and saw I go the label wrong. There were several arboretums in the area, and we actually didn't make it to the University one, but I think it had a connection to this one, somehow.
