Cleveland Botanical Garden

We went to the Cleveland Botanical Garden this afternoon. We especially enjoyed the Madagascar Spiny Desert exhibit. Also the Costa Rica Cloud Forest exhibit, which included clouds of Costa Rican butterflies of 20 species. The flower show theme gardens were fun. Every two years, after a botanical garden flower show, local landscapers create small theme gardens or retreats the bring to life various themes of the flower show. One theme garden has a fountain in which water pours out of musical instruments.







Before going to the botanical garden, we had breakfast with Jan Martin, who had a flight into Cleveland last night. Kathy Martin, and Peggy and Helene Bockhoff were there too.
