Default Re: Domes Again...this time PICS

Mitchell Park Conservatory (The Domes)

There is also a link at bottom of first post here if you want to see more pics of plants.
Layton Blvd is really 27th street.
The domes just reopened after being closed for months. They put lots of cool lights in for light shows at night. Driving on I 94 at night, you can see the tops of domes all lit up in blue. In the floral dome, there is a big blue ball at top & at night it looks like a big full moon.
I gotta post this pic of the Travelers Tree (or Palm?) - one of my favorites. It is HUGE.
Leaves (fronds) were really greener than pic.


Lousy camera...Lorax is helping me pick out a new one
