The latest chapter in the Book o' Leahy adventures is a random (yet festive) trek.
Random because it involved driving way 25 minutes way out in the middle of nowhere on a dirt road.
Festive because it involved poinsettias. A friend told us about the Dutch Heritage Gardens in Larkspur and that they were having an open house & tour today. After a long journey on a winding dirt road, we spotted the largest greenhouse facility EVER. There it was on top of the hill with nothing else around it.
To give you some background, the greenhouse supplies most of the state of CO with poinsettias and is a big supplier to grocery stores. So if you buy a poinsettia from King Sooper, it likely spent some time here! The greenhouse has more than 100,000 poinsettia plants in a variety of sizes and colors stocked for the holiday season. The colors were amazing...
Surrounded by a sea of red.
Hugs, not bugs, in this greenhouse.
