The snowcrete is finally starting to melt. I hated every ice-rain drop and snowflake of it - but it does look pretty in hindsight from my recent visit to #brooksidegardens #gardendc #dmv #snowsculpture
Visiting the conservatory of your closest #publicgarden is the best antidote to this cold, snowy winter. Here is the one at #brooksidegardens in Wheaton, MD. #gardendc #dmv #conservatoryshow

Two framed pictures on a black table cloth one of a smiling Caucasian baby boy with a jacket and bow tie, the other of a smiling Caucasian baby girl dressed in a white lacy dress with a white headband around wispy hair. There is a glass candy vase with blue wrapped mints and electric tea lights on the table.

Linger here and reflect on those lost to violence. Hope for a more peaceful world. Seek a reverence for life among all people.

Ants on the Move
A trail of ants evacuates their nest along a plant stalk inside the humid stillness of Brookside Gardens’ greenhouse. Actual speed—tiny lives in motion.

Clivia in Bloom
These vibrant Clivia miniata flowers were spotted at Brookside Gardens. Known for their striking orange petals and yellowish centers, they thrive in shady spots and bloom in clusters like this. Simple, bold, and hard to miss.

Delicate Landing
Wings like stained glass, flower like fire—this pit stop is anything but ordinary. A quiet reminder that even the smallest travelers need rest. #Butterfly #Photography #BrooksideGardens
A black butterfly with reddish orange and white spots on the wings rests on a bright green plant with white flowers

Starting the long weekend with hike 18/52 at Northwest Branch—sunshine, fresh air, and that perfect spring energy. Wrapped it up wandering through the blooms at Brookside Botanical Gardens. Everything’s in full bloom!
