Sunday Six: Week 5

This week is a "New Six" all taken this afternoon at the Atlanta Botanical Garden. It was a beautiful day today and the garden is getting ready for the Annual Orchid Exhibition which begins February 7th. Today was a good day to walk around and take photos because it was significantly less crowded than it will be over the next few weeks.


First up is a prickly pear cactus.


I have no clue what type of flower this is. It was actually in a multi-flower container with pansies and a few other hearty flowers.


The garden has frogs like this one hidden all around. Some are sitting on benches or rocks, or inside ponds. They're all really cute.


One of the many beautiful orchids on display at the Atlanta Botanical Garden.



This statue is located in the shade garden in what's called the "Frog Baby Pool." No baby frogs in there today!


Rounding things up today is another orchid. There were so many orchids on display, all bright, delicate, and beautiful. I think the two orchids in this post are one of the numerous Phalaenopsis (moth orchids), but I'm not positive.
