Friday Flower Fiesta — #12 (April 13, 2012)

For this week’s Friday Flower Fiesta, a selection of pictures taken in March throughout San Diego.

Pictures 1, 2, and 3 were taken in Balboa Park, the crown jewel of parks in San Diego County and the largest city-owned urban cultural park in the United States, according to the San Diego Convention and Visitors Bureau, and who am I to argue with them? I questioned them on it one time because there are three parks with more acreage: Mission Trails Regional Park right here in San Diego, Central Park in New York City, and Griffith Park in Los Angeles. The key word in the Visitors Bureau publicity is the word cultural. None of the other three parks are cultural parks. Now I understand.

The rest of the pictures were taken at The Water Conservation Garden at Cuyamaca College.

Now that we have that out of the way, Friday Flower Fiesta #12:
