I went yesterday to the botanical garden in La Carolina. They have a wonderful garden there with flora representative of all the different regions of Ecuador. I took lots of pictures, and was very happy with how they turned out. The rest of this post is just pretty pictures for you to look at. Enjoy!

| I saw this guy in the garden with a couple of his friends. There weren't as many hummingbirds as usual though because rain was looming on the horizon, and occasionally making wet dots on my coat. |
 |
| I thought these ones looked like butterflies |
 |
| They have giant leaves in Ecuador. It's pretty fun. |
 |
| I think it's off-season for roses right now, but when they're in full bloom the rose garden would be spectacular. |
 |
| I got a little artistic, so sue me. |
 |
| Real life pitcher plants! |
 |
| All carnivorous plants in this picture. |
 |
| These guys looked like air plants from back home. |
 |
| There was two whole green houses of different orchid species, unfortunately 87% of the orchids in Ecuador are some sort of endangered |
 |
| Cactus! Or cabbage? |
Here's a *hug* for you if you stuck around all the way to the end!
Absolutely gorgeous! I love the spread of photos. It was a lot of fun to allow my eyes to devour these delicious photographs.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite is probably the one with all the droplets. Yeah, okay, I'm a sucker for artsy photos. :p
