Nice Botanical Gardens, with great exhibits, Stop when in Sarasota, FL.
Marie Selby Botanical Gardens的点评
点评:We were in Sarasota to spend the night before our flight home, we were looking for somewhere to go to take pictures and see butterflies. We found out after we paid the $28 each fee that the butterflies were only found on bushes around the gardens not actually a house of them.
The gardens were beautiful, well manicured, and they had a George Harrison "Gardener" exhibit going on with a lot of his musical sayings, and some beautiful arrangements of the flowers, ferns, and different plants.
Even though the butterflies weren't there, we had a nice day of walking around taking pictures and seeing everything they had to offer. The Desert plants was exquisite, with lots of different cactus, and desert plants and trees. They have a restaurant in the middle of the grounds that serves delicious food and snacks.
We talked to one of the many volunteers and we were telling him about looking for the butterflies and he told us they have a sister botanical gardens 20 minutes south that has a large collection of them. We didn't go to that one this time but maybe next time we are in the area.
The gardens were well worth the cost, it was a beautiful spring day of 85 degrees in Sarasota, FL.
A must see when in the Sarasota area!
翻译:我们在萨拉索塔待了一晚,准备在回程航班前过夜,想找个地方拍照和看蝴蝶。我们付了每只蝴蝶28美元的费用后才发现,蝴蝶只在花园周围的灌木丛里找到,而不是在蝴蝶屋里。
花园很漂亮,修剪得很整齐,还有一个乔治·哈里森的“园丁”展览,里面有很多他的音乐箴言,还有一些漂亮的花卉、蕨类植物和各种植物的摆放。
虽然没有看到蝴蝶,但我们还是度过了愉快的一天,四处走走拍照,欣赏着花园里的各种美景。沙漠植物非常精致,有很多不同的仙人掌、沙漠植物和树木。花园中央有一家餐厅,供应美味的食物和小吃。
我们和一位志愿者聊了聊,告诉他我们正在寻找蝴蝶,他告诉我们,在南边20分钟路程的地方还有一个姐妹植物园,那里收藏了大量的蝴蝶。这次我们没有去,但下次也许会去附近。
花园非常值得一去,那天是佛罗里达州萨拉索塔一个美丽的春日,气温高达85华氏度(约29摄氏度)。
萨拉索塔地区必看!
