As a plant lover, this was an awesome place to visit. There was an enormous display of exotic palms from around the world, with the room lined wall to wall with greenery. All the plants were labeled with names and locations, which was helpful. It put into perspective how extensive the collection was.
On the left side of the central greenhouse was another filled with succulents and cacti. Many of these specimens were very unique to this location, as I had never seen probably 20 of the species. This served as a great research location if you're into exotic plant collecting.
The greenhouses on the right side were temporarily closed, which was unfortunate. Additionally, they were doing work on parts of the greenhouse, so it was sometimes a little loud and didn't smell great. But, that work was isolated, so it was easy to avoid it.
Entrance was free, which is always a good thing. read more
