    Great photos as always. For me there is nothing better than visiting somewhere where the plants are all looking so healthy and well maintained.

      The Dudleya and the Crassulas were in particular absolutely immaculate. If only I could do so well!

    An amazing array of plant shapes, colours and flowers, all very beautiful. Buddha's Tower has such a geometric shape, very nice. Thanks for sharing.
