California - San Diego Botanical Gardens

California and San Diego Botanical Gardens, have many different plant specimens. This was my first visit to San Diego, and a wonderful educational experience for Tom and I. We were out in San Diego as I was the coordinator of the SBI conference. This is a fantastic three day conference for SBI professionals that are building a successful on line business the right way. Feel free to check out all the details of SBI and how you could also create and develop a successful on line business.

We were able to have a little time to do some site seeing. Of course loving all different types of plants, it was a priority for me to see the gardens. Balboa Park is a hot spot for locals and tourists and the gardens are situated in the park area, along with the San Diego Zoo. The zoo also provides beautiful foliage for viewing, as well as many animals, reptiles, and the famous Panda Bears. I wanted to share with you some photos Tom took of a few of the different plants around the gardens.

Immediately you are drawn to the beauty of the nature in the park. This area is enormous and you can enter into the world of nature that will encompass you with different sub-tropical and tropical plants. I felt like a little child walking around and seeing the different specimens, Having been in southwest Florida at the Thomas Edison Estate and Botanical Gardens,there were some of the same varieties in Palm trees as well as other specimens. Some of the tropical plants we have seen also in Mexico and Dominican Republic. Feel free to sit back and relax and take in some of the beauty of the San Diego Botanical Gardens.
