Hi Gardenmart, haven't been there recently, but once belonged several years ago (before Andrew). Am just curious if the Garden has reached the maturity it once had before the hurricane knocked so many plants over?

The Garden seemed to have lots of mature specimens and had a finished look. I can't say as to the difference since this was my first visit, but there were many species and everything looked in good order. An amazing variety.

For an another side to the collection go see Fairchild's private home "The Kampon" addmission is difficult but the view from the bay and of manatees is worth it!
