I already posted pictures taken at Powell Gardens, when we visited in 2019. These pictures come from an earlier visit, ten years before. I used a different camera, too.
Here we go…
Trees and flowers. It is what we would expect.
Closer in on those gorgeous flowers.
My son traverses an obvious path.
The entrance.
Yellow makes for happy flowers.
Inside the Visitor Center.
Down the main hall.
Indoor plant.
Big flower. Looks like a plate.
A standout.
Bee… Careful!
Orange colors mix nicely in this flower.

It's a variety of hardy hibiscus. I have one like this in my yard, except the flowers are a dark red instead pink.

I was there in 2009. Maybe we saw each other there : )

You should post a picture of your flower. I'd love to see it.

Let me start off by admitting that I’m an idiot. When I saw “2009” in my pictures folder, I assumed it referred to the year 2009. It didn’t. It meant the year 2020, Month 9 (September, 2020.) I finally noticed the dates on the pictures. They indeed referred to nearly a year and a half AFTER the 2019 pictures. NOT ten years earlier. Sorry about that.
Flat beauty,
Droopy niceties.
Creepy statue but nice plants and flowers.
The varieties are amazing.
Lovely colors and shapes.
Yellow screams.
Multiple buildings on site.
I liked this big branch and its angle.
To eat or not to eat. That is the question.
Many kinds.
Pink lips.
Nice orange thing.

Again, it is September, 2020.
This flower seems prevalent.
The lake here is nice.
The flower he found must have been worthy.
Cool bridge.
Airborne.
Yet another bridge. A small one.
Lake and field.
My turn!
No shortage of bridges here. Who would think to paint the interior blue?
Flowers and fences. Love it.
Now a bridge and its reflection.
Really nice yellows.

I think this is a columbine flower.

My hardy hibiscus are blooming now.
My tropical hibiscus is also blooming.

Thank you for posting your beautiful flowers. I wound up in the hospital for two and a half months. I am now bedridden. Neuropathy renders my fingers and hands nearly useless. I will no longer be posting pictures.
