I love going to a new place with a completely different ecosystem. At home, I am used to walking around and knowing most of the plants. When I go somewhere with a completely different climate, it is all an awesome mystery. I can’t get over the wonder of it all!<\/p>\n

First, some flowers from my beach walk in Ventura.<\/p>\n

I know these ones- California Poppies.<\/p>\n

After leaving snowy Boston, all the flowers were bliss.<\/p>\n

We left Ventura and drove to the Joshua Tree National Park<\/a>. I’m so glad we went. The high desert is a beautiful place when winter rains have caused so many flowers to bloom. I hope I can visit again, maybe in another season.<\/p>\n

These are just a few of the many, many flowers we saw blooming there.<\/p>\n

Lots of plants growing out of rock crevices-<\/p>\n

And these were at the Los Angeles Arboretum and Botanical Gardens<\/a>. That was my favorite (non-fabric store) place we visited in LA.<\/p>\n

On our last day, we spent the afternoon walking around Venice Beach and the canals<\/a> there. Oh my, this house is so beautiful-<\/p>\n

And the garden with all the colors of green- it took my breath away.<\/p>\n

That’s all the tropical flowers- don’t want to overwhelm the blog! We are getting some spring here in Boston so I will have lots of my own flowers to enjoy soon.<\/p>\n
