Eric Bergeson recently visited the Tucson (Ariz.) Botanical Gardens, named by Reader’s Digest as the “BEST Secret Garden in America.” According to the its website, “The Tucson Botanical Gardens promotes responsible and appropriate use of plants and water in a desert environment through education and demonstration and provides a place of beauty and tranquility for Tucson residents and visitors.” The 40-year-old facility offers year-round tours, community events, classes and art exhibits and includes specialty gardens including the Cactus & Succulent Garden, Barrio Garden and Herb Garden, which highlight the diversity of native plants while offering a lush oasis in the heart of Tucson. Also tropical butterflies from around the world are featured in the Cox Butterfly & Orchid Pavilion from October through May.

Beautiful photos. Love butterflies. One of my favorite activities when I taught Kindergarten was watching caterpillars spin a cocoon and hatch into butterflies. These would make beautiful note cards or enlarged and framed.
