Beautiful garden, and I have never seen so many orchids. They had hundreds of them and all blooming. This is a 26-acre park, and you can see all of it in a leisurely stride in about an hour or so. We happened to stumble in on a Sunday, and they were lots of families having picnics and just hanging out. There are different themed areas in the gardens, including a koi pond and plenty of incredible plant life to explore. The cafe was closed due to covid, but the gift shop was open, and the day we stopped in, there was a food vendor in the park. Parking can be limited and the road to the garden is very rough. Well worth the visit.
