van Dusen

A while ago we headed over to van Dusen gardens for a walk. We actually walked there from here which was pretty nice. It's about 30 blocks from here.

 Parallel lines + leaves.. what more can I say?

 These (Allium, I believe) are gorgeous. They're so cool looking, and I really enjoyed taking photos of them.

 Lupines are one of my favourite flowers. I don't think I'd ever seen them until we went to Nova Scotia on a family trip a long time ago. They were one of my Nana's favourite flowers, and I think I love them as much as I do because they remind me of her.

 A beautiful heather.

 Allium and black lotus. Both so pretty..!

I love the long yellow flower stalks of the black lotus. It's gorgeous, and really brightens the place up.
