Botanical gardens!

I went to the Botanical Gardens in Chicago the other day and had a great time, saw some wonderful plants.  I was a little dissapointed though, because when I asked if they had any Carnivorous plants, they told me that the whole CP section got a disease, and most of them died, and they are trying to save some.

I got some good pictures of some Orchids and other things.  They had some wonderful orchids though, I have never seen such spectacular Colors

I should've had someone stand next to this desert plant. It is huge!

Do you see the bannanas?
 
looks just like the place they have in columbus ohio franklin conservatory.
 
If you are ever in Montreal their Botanical gardens has a nice CP area, also they have some nice Nep's hanging around.
 
I went to the one in Nebraska and was very disappointed. It was very small with not much to offer. Oh, well.
