The azaleas aren't yet at their height, but they looked good to me when I saw them at the Memphis Botanic Garden a couple of days ago.
There are white azaleas flanking the entrance to the Japanese Garden:
There are azaleas throughout the entire garden.
This sculpture is Artifact, a 1989 bronze located in the sculpture garden. The artist is Carroll Todd:
I also saw a bottle tree, close to the butterfly garden:
The day I was there the weather was cloudy and breezy and about 70F. A beautiful afternoon and perfect for time outside.

Stunning! That bottle tree is very cool.
ReplyDeleteI used to see these only very rarely, and then never in the city. They've gotten a lot more common. I've no idea why, but I think there are cool, too.
DeleteBeautiful garden. I haven't visited the SF Japanese Garden in ages. I think i'll put it on my Must Do list.
