GUIDE TO THE GARDENS OF FLORIDA
Florida means "flowery," and it lives up to its name. In a sense, Florida is the garden of the country. And within that garden—which runs from temperate, with its spring show of azaleas and dogwood, to the year-round lush profusion of the tropical—are many splendid gardens just waiting for your visit.
Organized by region, this guide provides detailed information about featured species and garden facilities and supplies helpful visitors' information such as directions, hours, and admission fees. You will also find a complete calendar of Florida garden events and a listing of where to see specific types of flora.
"This book is both a great read and an enticing photographic account of what Florida has in store for you. It is a gourmet guide to the best of Florida gardens written and photographed by excellent gardeners who love to view others' gardens as well as cultivate their own. Joseph and Lilly Pinkas are the best of the guides." —Dr. Brinsley Burbridge, Director, Fairchild Tropical Garden
