The steps lead up to a platform from which to view the flower quilt. (more later on)
There were many little houses for the bees who lay eggs in the pipes, keeping on adding more until it's full.
These pitcher plants were near the water feature, which had koi fish of course.

Mt. Pisgah probably in the distance across the flower quilt.

It's much more colorful in person, the sun kind of fades the colors. Or maybe you just blur your vision when you see it.
These dark orange petunias were everywhere.

Helen said, "quilting has been around for 3000 years...I wonder what kinds of materials they used for thread and cloth." I don't know why I didn't stop to read the panel, must have been in a hurry to take more pictures. I only took around 150 this trip!
Hello, beautiful garden scenes. I like the bee hotels and flower quilt is beautiful. Enjoy your day, happy weekend!
