The Gardens cover 99 acres. We only covered a small portion as it was late in the afternoon. It was irrigation time, and so some of the areas we just enjoyed from a distance. These two photos show the sprinklers in the background.
Their rose garden is extensive, featuring 2,400 roses.
There was a huge variety, and each variety was planted in a large bed. The color and fragrance were spectacular.
Even though we were there September 15th many flowers were blooming. The hibiscus were lovely.
A great favorite of the bees was the stonecrop.
There were many trees and bushes that provided a beautiful green backdrop to the blooms.
The Hydrangea were still blooming. They've always been a favorite of mine.
The beautiful foliage added to the color of the Gardens. It was well worth a stroll through on a sunny afternoon.
