Overland Park Arboretum & Botanical Gardens
Category: Botanical Gardens | Posted: Wed Aug 27, 2008 4:05 am I had a tough choice today. Cut the grass or go to a botanical garden? The lawn mower lost. I decided I'd go tip toe thru the tulips since it was so nice out. Even though it wasnt peak season there at the gardens I'm certainly glad I went. Overland Park Arboretum & Botanical Gardens http://www.opkansas.org/_Vis/Arboretum/Gardens/index.cfm I saw quite a few butterflies by the parking lot and thought it was my lucky day. Unfortunately they werent cooperating and were a whole lot faster than I. Eastern Tiger Swallowtail Monarch I'd have to say the Monet Garden was my favorite and it still had lots of color for being late in the season. Erickson Water Garden Clouded Sulpher Giant Swallowtail Probably some kind of Skipper Last edited: Wed Aug 27, 2008 4:15 am This blog entry has been viewed 3204 times
