I have a membership here, so I visit often while I am in Florida for the winter. There’s always something blooming no matter the time of year, and they seem to switch plants in and out regularly.

Some of the plants I could not find a label for and am depending on Google, and I am not a plant person, so I apologize in advance if I boo-boo’d any of the IDs.

Some photos from an afternoon walk:

For those who don't know, I live in a converted campervan and travel around the country, posting photo diaries of places that I visit. I am currently wintering in Florida.
