Description
Description
Although this park is fairly small, it
provides an excellent introduction to the plant and animal life of
the desert. You'll see a forest of cholla cacti as well as a garden
of small and complex pincushion cacti. From mid-February to April,
the wildflower displays here are gorgeous (if enough rain has
fallen in the previous months). The park also includes an
ethnobotanical garden; a garden for children that encourages them
to touch, listen, and smell; a demonstration garden; natural areas;
an exhibit house for art displays; a tearoom that's great for
breakfast, lunch, or afternoon tea; and two very good gift shops.
Park docents lead guided tours throughout the day, and there are
also bird walks and many other special events throughout the cooler
months of the year.
