Marie Selby Botanical Gardens

While my mother in law was visiting, my husband and I took her to the gardens. My mother in law and husband love gardening , me not so much. I tend to kill plants, but I am getting better since moving to Florida.
The Marie Selby Botanical Gardens are located in Sarasota, Florida.
The Gardens were officially opened to the public in 1975.



















There is a wedding pavillion with Sarasota Bay behind it.










































A peaceful Koi pond with lots of big koi
















A very relaxing, informative place to visit.
