    Botanic Gardens - Flowers Part 1

    Breaking this into two threads so not to have an overload. Pretty much covers everything else that wasn't put into a separate thread

    1. Water plant in the Heritage Garden


    2 African Lily


    3 Lily


    4 Brown-Eyed Susans in the English Walled Garden


    5 Wild Black-Eyed Susans on Dixon Prairie


    6 Blooming Cutleaf Teasel in Dixon Prairie Very invasive, have been growing like mad on the sides of the highways (just a wall and a small river between them and the prairie), hopefully they'll be able to keep it from taking over.


    7 Sunflowers, Dixon Prairie

    A crop of #12 would be my pick - what a beautiful scene. - Terry

    I'm going with Terry on this one. Number 12 is my favorite. Great catch with the fly in number 4 also, Jeff
