Pink lady slipper

Coastal Maine Botanical Garden – Lady Slippers

Maine / Megan

I also don’t remember there being that many lady slippers about.     They were everywhere – even in the parking lot.      That was lovely to see. The yellow and white flowers are from a planted bed in the wildflower garden, but all the pinks are from various locations around the Garden.

Dumbarton Oaks – Washington, DC

Travel / Megan

Our wander through Georgetown culminated in a stroll up 31st Street to Dumbarton Oaks.    (The stroll itself is a treat – what a gorgeous neighborhood.)     There are two parts to this property, which is owned by Harvard: the house, now a museum and research library, and the garden.    The museum is free, but the gardens
