Desert Botanical Gardens

desert botanical gardens

The Phoenix area has so many incredible places to visit and things to do. There really is something for everyone to do here. One of my top favorites is the Desert Botanical Gardens. We have been members for the last few years, and every time we go, we learn something new. When people think of the desert, they think of dirt, rocks, and cacti. Boy, is there so much more. The desert in bloom is incredible. Cacti blooming as far as the eye can see is really quite a sight to see. The gardens are set up with different paths and different desert lifestyles. At the top, you can see the Phoenix area and mountains for miles.

Dale Chihuly’s work is amazing

At the time we went, Dale Chihuly had an installation. I saw his installation when it was here last time, but wow, so many new amazing pieces. He works in glass and each piece is incredible. How does he do it, and how do they transport this around the country? The exhibit looks so beautiful with all of the glass glistening in the sun. I would love to see it at night too. Here are a few of the pictures I took from our day at the gardens. Enjoy!
