Ladybird Johnson Wildflower Center is a native plant botanical garden located in Southwest Austin just off Loop 1.  With its incredible array of native plants, water features including an aquaduct and viewing tower, it truly is a delightful treasure for Austin!  And don’t forget to check out its art gallery to see what is currently on display.  Until October 4 you will find the wonderful, magical origami of Joan Son.  Some of her images are below.  What a joy to behold an 8 ft. kimono made out of 900 pieces of paper!

And for you gardening buffs, be sure and mark your calendars for October 9-11.  It is the center’s Fall Plant Sale & Gardening Festival!  Sure to be a hit!
