A ‘planted’ Albert Einstein

The real statue of Einstein, not made of plant parts and pictured below, is a Washington landmark, just like all the other models in this exhibit.


After spending some time at the pollinators and model train display, we went to the conservatory at the U.S. Botanic Garden to see their indoor “Seasons Greenings” holiday exhibit where they feature models of DC landmarks made entirely of plant parts and a huge collection of poinsettias. I didn’t photograph all the landmarks again, just the new ones; the others appear at the very beginning and towards the end of this gallery http://pbase.com/helenpb/america_return_washington_2_botanic

...In the center of the piece of wood and well surrounded by a circle of poinsettia... As a cosmic vision of the Universe.

I love it! His hair is a bit wilder in the plant version.

Ok, it's not the real statue of Al, but he would probably think it is all relative.
