Tower Hill Botanical Garden
LL and I took a trip to the Tower Hill Botanical Garden in Boylston today. It was a perfect day to be outside — sunny, 75°, breezy, the kind of weather that makes me want to lay down a blanket in a shady spot and stare up at the clouds until I fall asleep. The garden itself wasn't bad, though I think the $8 price of admission (and no student discount!) is a bit more than it's worth. They have a systematic garden grouping plants by family which I haven't seen elsewhere. I think the place is still a work in progress.
Rather than drone on about it, here are some photos. Clicking the thumbnails will open a new page with a larger image.
