I also made a stop at the
Denver Botanic Gardens this last week and was so incredibly impressed! They had these amazing sculptures by Tetsunori Kawana out of bamboo by and the landscaping was incredible. The 'East Meets West' exhibit is going on through November 4th, so if you're in the Front Range, I highly recommend it!

| Allium. . . variety?? |
|
This last pic is of an allium (which I couldn't find the variety of) that was just about the coolest thing I've ever seen. On short stalks (maybe 5-7 inches high), they had HUGE seed heads and looked like fireworks bursting from the ground. The
DBG website is an incredible resource; definitely check it out. Of course, it provokes a certain amount of envy when you visit somewhere that can grow Zone 7 varieties (or beyond), but we don't have much traffic to deal with up here, so there you go!
