Field Trip




Yesterday my wife and I took a ride over to Smith College in North Hampton Massachusetts to visit the Lyman Conservatory. The conservatory is over 100 years old and has a wonderful collection of plants from around the world.  In March the conservatory puts on a Spring bulb show for the public. We got there early so the crowds weren't to bad.  The great thing about this show is that the pots are labeled and displayed at eye level for easy viewing.  It is hard to pick a favorite but the fritillarias and species tulips were on top of my lists.
