Last Saturday we took Fiona to visit the Desert Botanical Gardens in Phoenix Arizona. We found a coupon online for $2 off each adult admission. Once we got there we found out that for an additional $3.50 each we could also go into the seasonal butterfly exhibit.
The Nomad Canfields
Looks like snakes!
Isn’t this gorgeous?
Greetings from the Desert Botanical Gardens from Joel and Fiona
The top of this cactus looks like little pineapples
Sue and Fiona rest at the end of the day
Joel and Fiona planning – did we miss anything on the map?
Look at the strange growth on this cactus!
Prickly Pear Cactus
What a view!
What’s that?
Finally! Some shade!
This is called Mexican Fence Post Cactus
This is actually a cactus made of glass!
This is a neat tree!
Do you know what kind this is?
This tree had a huge trunk and all these little branches growing out. Very interesting.
This is called a Pony Tail Palm – and it’s pony tail grew sideways!
See the butterflies?
Looking through these special glasses Fiona can see how the world looks through butterfly eyes!
