Traveler reviews
Jamie O'Donnell
★★★★★a year agoVisits to the garden are free, and it is a lovely little collection of plants (aquatic and terrestrial). Each grouping has species of a type (monocots, aquatic, medicinal, etc). There is plentiful signage to guide you through the sections, and the labeling of the plants is quite thorough. April 9, 2025
