Botanical gardens are gorgeous - Pinterest thrives on gorgeous! It’s a great resource for gardeners and travelers hoping to remember all those beautiful plants and spots they have seen on the internet and would like to plant or visit one day. I think it’s a fabulous trend! ~AR

Anyone else feeling slightly jaded about the fact that this week effectively contains two Mondays? Yeah. Me too. So, to help ease you past the second-Monday-but-not-actually-Monday midday slump, here are some lotuses and water lilies (including ‘Ray Davies’ (but, no, not that Ray Davies)) currently in bloom as part of Monet’s Garden. Hope it helps!~AR
