On a recent bike ride, we stopped at the Chicago Botanic Garden for our “half-way” point to stretch, get some water, eat some lunch, maybe some PIE… and a nice walk through the Botanic Garden. My favorite was the water lilies. Such pretty colors. Great patterns. And so cool that they grow & float in the water!
And then they had some really cool, somewhat crazy, water lilies. They’re HUGE… the largest are about four feet in diameter. The colors are cool, and the spikes are crazy!
The coolest one was this “new” leaf. The colors were more vibrant… and look at those really incredible textures inside AND outside!!! Like something straight out of “Little Shop Of Horrors.” Feed me Seymour…
