I was through these gardens twice in my other life (before kids), and these pictures make me want to be there again - right now, where it looks warm and sunny!

thanks for sharing! [thumb]

I couldn't find out how many gardeners work there, but they put in one million bedding plants every year! This year is the 100th anniversary.

I think Kathy Renwald used to go there alot
on her show and had feature things there,
I thought they showed like the test gardens
and herb sections... They dont' have her
show on any more that I see on my broadcasts... [Eek!]

And it does make me want to go out
side and garden, you bet your sweet bippy!!! [thumb] [flower] [thumb]
