Springfield Botanical Garden – June 2025
/I had a few minutes before I needed to head into a class at the Springfield Botanical Gardens last week; it had just rained, and the clouds were still thick. There was plenty of time to take a few pictures of plants on the way down to the Butterfly House…looping back to the Botanical Center where my class would be. I notice more when I am in ‘photo mode’ and am glad my iPhone 15 Pro Max does a reasonable job for this type of garden photography! The only challenge was the breeze moving the vegetation around.
There were water droplets on the new leaves of a redbud,
Clumps of spiderworts,
Seed pods on wild indigo,
Clusters of milkweed buds, and
Spirals of unfurling leaves.
There is always something new to notice in the garden!
