Illinois Garden Named a Best Place to Take a Selfie with Flowers

Seeds, Fertilizer & More

No garden is complete without roses. The fragrant blooms symbolize love, fascination, distinction and motherly love.

Plants like chrysanthemums and daisies can fill the flower beds with color. Black-eyed susans are easy to grow and come back year after year. Bergenias have beautiful foliage and can grow in shady areas.

If you seek photogenic moments with flora, there’s one garden in Illinois that was just ranked as one of the best places in America to do it.

I will confess I’m not much of a selfie person. The problem is I don’t enjoy seeing myself, but that’s a topic for a different day. This is all about you and perhaps you’re more photogenic (Editor’s Note: that’s a certainty). If so, you should check out Livability’s new most Instagram-Worthy Flower Fields list.

Which Illinois location is among the most Instagram-Worthy Flower Fields?

Answer – Chicago Botanic Gardens

Chicago Botanic Gardens features “27 gardens on 385 acres” and even though I’m not a garden/flower or math genius, I can attest to the fact that’s a lot of flower opportunities.

It’s worth mentioning that Chicago Botanic Garden has its own huge following on Instagram with over 114,000 followers as of this writing.
