Help! And also an adventure.

     Ok, I'm finally getting to the big post.  This will be the first time I am posting pictures.  A few weeks ago, which is when I was actually going to post my last post, we were supposed to take the Cub Scouts to the Japanese Sunken Gardens and then for a "hike" in Brackenridge Park.  Only one boy showed up so we decided to postpone the visit so that more boys would be able to get the achievements we were going to be working on.  The purpose of going to the Sunken Gardens was in place of a requirement they have to go to a botanical garden and learn about plants.  The Botanical Gardens while beautiful are very expensive and the Sunken Gardens are free.  The problem is that the plants at the Sunken Gardens are not labeled so we were pretty much just going to be looking at the plants and hoping the kids thought they were interesting.

     Well, Marley was actually at work since it was a Saturday morning we were planing this activity and when we decided to postpone I decided to take a walk around the gardens myself and take pictures of the plants to that I could find some information on the plants to actually tell the Cub Scouts about when we actually do have the activity.  So I have all these pictures but I don't really know what any of these plants are and I was hoping since I know some people who know about plants that they would be able to help me identify these plants. I tried Googling them and may have found out what some of them are but it's hard to say.

P.S. If you click on the pictures it should give you a full size view of them.

P.P.S. I tried to remove all the duplicates but there are a lot of pictures so let me know if I missed any.
