Here are some of the short videos Susan took at the Butterfly Conservatory. They are combined into a single video.
Floral Showhouse
Because Susan’s grandparents lived for some time in Niagara Falls, her family often visited the floral displays at the Niagara Parks greenhouse, now apparently called the Floral Showhouse.

The greenhouse is still much as it has always been.
Besides the floral displays that change throughout the year, the greenhouse features orchids, succulents, and other tropical plant species.
There were only a few orchids and tropical plants in bloom.
The patterns and textures of the succulents were captivating.
In the gardens surrounding the greenhouse were “whimsical topiary-like living sculptures meticulously crafted from thousands of plants in the refined horticultural style of Mosaïculture.” This description from the website is quite apt.
This is as close as we got to the falls! Always a spectacle, even from a distance.

This is the time of year for gladiolas and dahlias.
Double White Disc 1 Side 1
The actual name of the album, The Beatles, was embossed on the all white album cover. There are so many versions of these songs on YouTube.
