For our field trip yesterday, we visited Botanical Gardens in Ft. Wayne. They have a desert room and a rainforest room. Since we have just studied both of them, we got to see some of the plants we have studied. First - the desert.
The Saguaro cactus.
Ocotillo plant - the kids on our story Roxaboxen used these as swords. DANGEROUS! The thorns were very sharp!
There were even flowers blooming in the desert.
Second, the rainforest.
And... here's the chocolate tree!
I need a chocolate tree! I have a patient who told me he was going to give me a banana tree.
