Flowers and Botanical Gardens in Alabama...who knew?

I went down to Birmingham, Alabama for a week. I've never been to the south and I had my fill of meat'n 3's, thick and incomprehensible accents and cool old buildings. I found myself milling around the botanical gardens...basically, I hadn't seen a flower in 4 months and I found the colors and smells overwhelming... I was just so happy! Here are some photos from that day!!!
