Mary Sherwood from Littleton, North Carolina, was inpired by yesterday’s post to send in these photos of the Chihuly exhibit at the New York Botanical Garden in 2006. Beautiful–thanks, Mary! We’ll feature another photo from Mary and NYBG tomorrow, day 3 in our week of FUN in the garden! I have a feeling this is quickly turning into TWO weeks of garden fun…woohoo! Got some photos of wild and whimsical features in your garden? Email me!
