The end of January is not the best time to visit a public garden under normal circumstances, but Coppertone and I were in the area and this public garden also had ocean views so we stopped by.
We could see evidence that the flowering plants were getting ready to burst out in full force in the coming weeks. A few Rhododendrons had already come into bloom giving us a taste of what was to come.
Given the time of year and the fact that we arrived only about a hour and a half before closing, we had the trails mostly to ourselves.
