Huntington Gardens
Botany with Jim Folsom, the director of the botanical gardens.
What a great day we had at The Huntington. Jim Folsom is a wonderful instructor and incredibly knowledgeable of Botany.
It was so exciting entering the lab at The Huntington. There were racks overflowing with fruits and vegetables.
Beautiful flowers were brought in for us to dissect and view under the microscopes.
All the microscopes waiting for the students to open up and start playing! Each student had two different types of scopes to use throughout the day.
Jars of specimens filled the tables. By the end of the day, plants littered all the tables and Jim's worktable was so filled with specimens, he just kept pushing everything into organized piles.
Beautiful Poppies! It was such a shame to dissect them.
Alyse and I enjoying learning about the Botany of the plants we draw for our assignments.
What a great day, can't wait to take more Botany classes at the Huntington!
Fun, Fun, Day!
