The Denver Botanical Gardens


























Unidentified hanging purple flower, in the Tropical Conservatory.










































Clematis smilacifolia
(That means it's related to your tame garden clematis, and is also part of the buttercup family!)


My old friend salvia! Salvia greggi, variety 'Furman's red'.
























CORRECTION: Emily FAILS once again at reading labels! (Though one might also say that the DBGardens failed at clear labeling.) This is apparently not Galium odoratum at all but Anemone! Specific species name unknown. All apologies where due.






















Nelumbo nucifera
a.k.a. lotus!
