If I knew what these flowers were, I’d tell you about them.

i really enjoyed visiting Kew Gardens. I visited once in the mid 1980s and more recently in 2019. Spent several hours there, but still have things to see in a future visit.

Quite splendid. The Hive is surreal. Thanks for the chance to transport there via your blog.

The insectivorous plant is also called “Pitcher Plant” for the shape of the leaves. We have them in the Finger Lakes Region of Central New York

I love the monkey puzzle trees at Kew! And the greenhouse with the giant lily pads in it, though I always forget what it’s called. If you visit again around this time of year, would highly recommend going to Isabella Plantation in Richmond Park. It’s free, and absolutely gorgeous when it’s in bloom.
