Desert Plants in the Kyoto Botanical Gardens Conservatory

By the time I made my way around to the Desert House, my battery was getting low and I didn't photograph many of the plant labels. I took mostly wide views of plant groupings anyway because I was attracted to the structures and combinations rather than individual plants. This was an amazing display.

  1. The so called landscaper I hired a few years back moved mine from the corner of the house to close to the front door. It has had pitiful blooms every since. I hoped the pouting was over with this year, but it's not. I'm not sure what I need to do to bring it back to its former beauty. Mary

  3. Oh that is lovely! I have a similar colored one that is a single. It is blooming and so pretty right now. I bet yours is gorgeous when the whole bunch is blooming.
