More photos from the Botanical Garden



I liked the way that this lettuce looked so much that we bought a pack of seeds from the gift shop and planted them in our garden.  They look like little flowers!


Tower Grove House was the country home of the Missouri Botanical Garden founder Henry Shaw.  Unfortunately, we didn't have time to tour the inside.  By the time that we made it to this area, we'd be in the gardens for four hours and my normally pleasant husband was tired of looking at flowers.



Henry Shaw is buried here amongst the gardens near his country home.  The stained glass is gorgeous.
