Vero Beach is home to McKee Botanical Gardens and one of the nation’s largest outdoor collections of waterlilies. I took this photo last March, and love how the pads “sit” atop the palm tree’s reflection.
McKee is an architectural gem dating back to 1922. To see the black and white “tourist” reel ”Jungle Garden in 1939,” click below:
Until next time….

Just lovely!!
Thank you! I thought so, too!!!
I’m a fan of waterlilies. There is something magical about them when in full bloom. I planted several in my previous house but sadly I had to leave them behind. I did have great memories of them together with goldfishes and a turtle. Thanks for helping me remember.
Isn’t it nice when a long forgotten good memory shows up?
Definitely worth a little research, yeah?
BTW, since writing this waterlily post, I’ve been considering growing some (or at least attempting it!) in huge bowls.
