Late Spring Flowers

I know many of us feel like we missed spring while we were staying at home due to COVID-19,  and now we're glad and excited to see gardens, museums, and other attractions reopening, safely and in stages. 

I'm particularly excited to see the Atlanta Botanical Garden reopen. They did a great job of showing us so many spring blossoms via social media, and yes, I know it's technically still spring, but that season comes and goes so quickly in Atlanta. That said, there are beautiful flowers year-round at the Garden! Here are a few that I photographed just last weekend...

The Coneflower is one of my favorites. These are in the Rose Garden, which has beautiful roses and so much more!

Found in the Rose Garden, I don't know what kind of roses these are, but their color is amazing!

Again, this color is amazing! There are lots of these along the walkway leading the the Skyline Garden.

The above beauties are located near the Cheshire Cat in the Skyline Garden, part of the Alice's Wonderland Reimagined summer exhibtion.
