Every time I visit the Birmingham Botanical Gardens I marvel at how fortunate we are to have these lovely gardens to stroll and enjoy. I also ask myself why I don't come more often. From time to time I will treat you to photos of this quiet oasis right here in Birmingham. Located in the Mountain Brook suburb south of Birmingham, it's a popular attraction for residents, visitors, and most of all photographers. It offers a wonderful education department, tours, gift shop, library, restaurant, and of course it's the perfect place for a wedding or reception. On a steamy summer day, it's the coolest place around.

That looks like a lovely oasis. I'd like something like that in my backyard. My only requirement: it also has to repel mosquitoes!
This is Southern beauty is I imagine it. You have captured a dream!
It sounds like a wonderful place to visit and enjoy.
I have got to visit these gardens eventually!
Looks like a lovely place indeed. We have a botanical garden & I keep meaning to go there more often than I do. I've really enjoyed a tour through your photos and will be back often. Thanks for leaving me a note. (Chocolate & Dr. Zhivago are among my favorites too.)
What a lovely place!
I've really enjoyed catching up with your previous posts too. I'll remember God bless a miracle, it's a delightful one!
I wonder why Vulcan's torch was replaced by a spear ?
And I LOVED yesterday's recycled art, I hope to see more.
Re my photo in Avignon today, you are right, I was really annoyed with this yellow bottle and that's exactly why I cropped the second one tighter.
Oui je serai très contente si vous voulez écrire en français !
Beautiful place to sit a while..
