An early May visit to the Riverbanks Botanical Gardens had a touch of rock n roll!
You can guess who these represent!
Notice the surf board has a shark bite taken out of it!
Answers at the end of the post!
These newly planted gardens will likely be filled in over the next couple of months.
There is a lot of lush green already.
Dotted with pops of color.
Roses are starting to bloom.
Hydrangea too.
What is spring without lilies?
It is always a joy to stroll through here at any time of the year.
If you didn't guess, the inspirations were the Rolling Stones, Prince, Beach Boys and Bruce Springstein. I imagine the sponsors of those areas had creative liberty in their creations.
If you go, the gardens are located at:
1300 Botanical Parkway
West Columbia, SC
Do to the limit capacity brought on my COVID, a booking is required online ahead of going.
Have a marvelous day/evening (wherever you are on the clock)! ~Val
This looks a a great place to visit.
