点评:I was ashamed of how I kept my garden at home, but after what I saw today, mine looks great compared to The Huntsville Botanical Gardens. If my name or company was represented on one of the areas I would either clean it up or take my name off of it. The Gardens knew there would be a lot of people there today for Mother's Day and for the Tea so I would have thought they would have done at least a little maintenance. There was last year's mulch on the unedged sidewalks. There were large weeds that were more than knee high. I saw no area at all that had been maintained. There was no fresh mulch anywhere that I saw. It was a very disappointing trip and embarrassing to think people from out of town and/or state visiting The Gardens paid money to see what a mess the whole place is. It should be maintained or shut down until it can be cleaned up.
