Botanical Gardens, Cincinnati and Niagara Falls Cananda

I had a wonderful time visiting my friend in Cincinnati this past Easter weekend. We saw so many sights including the botanical gardens. It was planted for Easter with Easter lilies, daffodils, tulips, hyacinth and muscari. The first picture is of a plant called Cleopatra's Earings which I thought had such beautiful color.
And they had some amazing very old bonsai trees. Love the roots in this one!
And our trip then took us to Niagara Falls in Canada and right by the falls is a small but very well kept and gorgeous botanical garden..
They had planted beautiful varieties of daffodils I had never seen before. This one is my favorite.

They had so many different types of orchids there as well. This Paphiopedilum is to die for. Wish I could get these for the studio.
