UT Gardens

I visited the gardens at University of Tennessee the last day of June. The gardens are part of the agriculture department, but open to the public.
Their coneflowers are prettier than mine.
The above photograph I have already put in one of my greeting cards.
My coneflowers have not done very well this year.

Beautiful dark hollyhock, I just could not get at the right angle with the sun.

But I think my favorite part was the sedum garden.

The sedum garden was built on a table top.

They also had one on the park bench, but the light angle at it was terrible,
so I am not even showing it.

I am sure the gardens are pretty anytime of year.

I need to remember to go in the spring next year.

Bumblebee covered in pollen

This bumblebee is taking all the pollen from this hollyhock bloom. The photo was taken at Ruby's house. Thanks again for inviting me over.
