Some gardens I'm already familiar with include: The NY Botanical Garden, The Bronx, NYC, NY The Brooklyn Botanical Garden, Brooklyn, NYC, NY Longwood Gardens, Kennett Sq. Park, PA Arnold Arboretum, Wellsely, MA (?) The National Botanical Garden, Washington, DC Doris Duke Gardens, Somerville, NJ I'd like to be able to submit (or receive) such descriptions over the net. The immediate personal concern: What gardens are worth seeing in Hawaii and Australia? I'd like to see orchids in particular. With luck a series on botanical gardens can start soon.
