I was in the Gardens of Philbrook in the middle of September, here is some of what I saw.

A colorful orange zinnia

A monarch butterfly

More Zinnias

Oklahoma Autumn by Eric Baker

Philbrook has a ton of trees

Some beautiful blue Adirondak Chairs. That is the new Tandy Pavilion on the rise behind the chairs.

Villa Philbrook from the Reflecting Pool

A watermelon and other plants near the new Tandy Pavillion

And speaking of pavilions. They new Tandy Pavilion makes for a great event space, plus some shady deck space. The A/C is ice cold and the restrooms are handy out in the far reaches of the gardens.

Nothing like Purple Phlox on a bright day.

A bas-relief. That may be Dionysus leading a couple ladies astray
