Trip Report: Myriad Gardens in bloom

In December I visited the OKC Myriad Gardens and wrote 2 different posts about my trip, along with a photo album.  Last weekend I went back to the garden and was surprised to see that there were lots of different plants in bloom from 2 months ago.

I have added another photo album of my pictures from this trip.  This time I took more pictures of blooms than the previous trip.  I tried not to take a lot of duplicate pictures from my last trip.

Here are some of the blooming highlights:

There are a lot more great plants to see, and quite a few more orchids in blooms, so I suggest you look at my photo album.

  7. What a wonderful trip you had there! I am also a plant enthusiast and really love tropical plants that grow in low light and indoor environment. These photos are just amazing. I noticed the Stromanthe sanguinea with red glowers was just amazing. Keep it coming!
