"fun afternoon "

We visited the botanical center when my son was less than a year old.  It was more for something fun for mom and dad to do and get out of the house in the winter.  It was a pretty place but certainly nothing extrememly exciting.  We would go again if we had nothing better to do.  All I really remember is the man at the door asked if I was under 12 (I was in my upper 20s!)

"Botanical Center"

The botanical center, is a beautiful dome shaped conservatory. The conservatory is home to thousands of plants and flowers that are carefully labeled. You can self-guide and pace yourself through this beautiful community, but be prepared to stop your child or children from picking the plants!
