Sunday I went to the South Coast Botanic Garden. It's located in Palos Verdes, in Southern California, off of Crenshaw Blvd.
Even though we are at the tail end of summer, the gardens were lush and beautiful. There were flowers of every color and variety.
We walked a quick 40 minutes through the entire scope of the gardens using the tram route. We wanted to get a good walk in because we just had lunch and dessert, but didn't want to stay too long fearing that we'd get locked up in there overnight.
There's so much to see, I will definitely be returning to give it more time. There are benches in different areas so you can relax while you take in the beautiful foliage, plants and flowers. I could see myself with Starbucks in hand sitting in their gorgeous rose garden surrounded by colorful purple flowers.
We stopped in to the grounds on a lark, out of curiosity. It was actually after hours and there was a wedding reception in full swing, yet the grounds keeper let us in anyway. Sometimes spontaneous works out to be better than planned!
