点评:It had been many years since I visited this magical place. I actually cried up on my return. Open on weekends and by appointment, Kent and Hadley (the owners) graciously greeted us on a chilly February afternoon. The 3-acre botanical garden seems to be a natural wonder. Hard to imagine the visionaries. Marshall and Lester, who were inspired to create this garden. It was a joy to see Western Hills after so many years. They traveled the world looking for plants, rare species, and hybridizing many new plants. The magic is still there. Gardeners, landscapers, nature lovers will all find a place to learn, rest, and retreat. Call ahead about visiting and available plants in season. The daily fee is worth every penny. Hundreds of plant varieties many very rare. Tucked away on Coleman Valley Road in Occidental, this is more than a day trip adventure.
Support the garden's nonprofit and future to become an official arboretum.
