Earlier this week, I took a quick trip to Lewis Ginter Botanical Gardens in Richmond. I’ve been there several times this year – and each time I find something new and wonderful to photograph. On this visit, I discovered a large bed of Sonata Mix Cosmos (cosmos bipinnatus) in full bloom. I just loved the way they swayed in the sunny breeze – in great shades of pinks and white. Here are some of my favorite Cosmos photos from Lewis Ginter.

The cosmos were in full bloom last week – my guess is that if you head to Lewis Ginter in the next few days – you’ll still be able to see a spectacular display of the cosmos
