  • Forget everything that you've known about visiting a botanical garden. The visit alone will change your experience and knowledge of plants and flowers. The ticket price is worth every cent from the beautiful sculptors and displays in addition to the lovely exhibits and attractions that the garden covers. Unfortunately, Hub and I were not able to visit and cover every section of the garden since we did all the attractions on the same day. We skipped the Tree House and Leslie-Hancock Garden and the Youth Gardens that was located all the way at the end of the museum. The botanical garden would take at least 3 hours to cover the entire premise for your visit. For those who need more time to venture and explore, no worries the admission is good for 2 days. Our fav area is definitely the popular Chinese and Japanese Gardens. The layout of the landscape design is literally covered in blooms, pavilion, and waterfalls. In terms of variation, the Chinese garden is known for the architecture and history of the Dynasty while the Japanese garden is known for combining all elements of the garden to create art and zen state of mind. As for the horticulturist-artists work, all of the mosaics were breathtaking. However, the work of the Mother Earth is a stunning and unforgettable creation. I can't even begin to describe the striking visual of the intricate shape of the hands opening up a waterfall and the other hand to a deer. Just by a glance tells you, not only does the sculpture look tedious but it definitely took hours of labor and toll to complete the piece of art. And, you get to vote on your favorite work/sculpture at the International Hub to win a trip for 2 to Doha, Qatar until the end of this year. For those who are into the whole garden scenery, the Insectarium might be more of your cup of tea. There are numerous collections and exhibits on the diverse insects. There's even a live demonstration for those brave enough to hold a scorpion. The leafcutter ants are pretty amazing. Each ant picks and cuts leafs to feed and harvest fungus where they feed and maintain their nest and defend their colony. Have fun on your visit. Enjoy!
