Visiting Selby Gardens - Sarasota Fl.
  Flower identifications furnished by Angel Lara of Selby Gardens
Most city's have a botanical garden. If you like tropical flowers and in particular orchids, in the Tampa Bay area Selby Gardens is the place. Best way to go about a visit is to call and ask what is on display and what is blooming. I went at the spur of the moment and was disappointed with the variety of orchids on display. I must redo this take when more orchids are on display.
