A visit to Eloise Butler Wildflower Garden

Yellow Lady Slippers

On my way home from a meeting in South Minneapolis yesterday I pulled my bike over for a visit to the Eloise Butler Wildflower Garden.  I had been by earlier in the year to photograph the early blooming flowers and was curious what might now be blooming.

While there I met a man who regularly takes pictures of the plants. He indicated you would have to come by almost daily to catch the vast variety of plants in their prime.

It was my good fortune to be there on the first day the Yellow Lady Slippers made their grand appearance. So glad I decided to take time out to make the side trip.
