by At 15 acres, the Myriad Botanical Gardens in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, (new state!) are relatively small, which was good, because I was there during a heatwave. I was there early in the morning, but it was already hot and humid, and I was glad to be able to zip through the paths taking pictures.
Also on site is the Crystal Bridge Conservatory. It’s just 224 feet long and 70 feet wide, and though it says it’s three floors, that’s really just at either end. The middle section is open from top to bottom, and you can walk along a skywalk and look down into the conservatory.
If I thought it was hot outside, I learned I was mistaken when I entered the conservatory. Though I was through the doors when they opened at 9 a.m., I was in need of a shower by 9:20 a.m. However, it’s the price to pay for flower pictures, and I’m willing to make the sacrifice.
Beautiful!!
Thanks!
