Season's Greenings

The US Botanical Garden has been hosting a holiday event since Thanksgiving, Season's Greenings, with amazing displays made from plant material. We visited on Sunday, taking along Carter's friend Kitty to see the fantastic animal homes (like Monkey Mansion above), presidential houses (Martin Van Buren's below), and to while away the hours in the standard displays of lovely orchids and other botanical wonders from around the world. More photos follow.



We found several interesting plants, including this one that looked like a bird.


Carter and Kitty mugged for the camera quite a bit, posing everywhere. 





We asked Kitty if she were to ever live in the house above, would she be called "President Kitty?" The answer is no.  For formal titles, she prefers her formal name - Katherine.
