East of Phoenix City, in the PAPAGO PARK we wisited the Desert Botanical Garden. This garden is home of SAGUAROS, the PRICKLL PEARS, the AGAVES, the OCTUPUS, and many, many other cactuses. They display also wildflowers from all ove the word. It is like a "museum" of 50.000 plants: small, medium, large or giant sizes.
Everyone is different, one has only one trunk, others two, or more branches waiting for the rain. The birds like to make their nice, cool and wet nest inside the branches. Flowers both side of the many walkways with signs about their names, and their origins, like Arizona, Mexico, California and many other tropical places. The mountains are visible in every turn on the walkways.
The garden also an education place for student. They learn not only the plants, but the culture and history of the Indian people, they see how they lived in the desert long time ago.
