Bok Tower Gardens -- I visited this wonderful place for the first time yesterday (it's in Lake Wales). It was a gorgeous day and perfect for a long walk-about, admiring the plants and listening to the carillon in the background. The tower houses a 60-bell carillon - one of the world's finest.
Here are some pictures of the gardens and tower.
Beautiful oak trees all around with the Spanish moss
Nun's orchids
The Brunfelsia grandiflora (Yesterday, today and tomorrow) was huge. I bought a small potted one from their little nursery. I haven't owned one in a long time and I hope I can get this one to live more than a few years.
