Brookgreen Gardens

My sister Jenny and Kathy on a long, straight walkway that leads from Brookgreen Gardens to Atalaya, the Huntingtons' former home in what is now Huntington Beach State Park.

While many of the flowers at Brookgreen were past their prime, these were in perfect bloom.

Sculpture both new and old is dotted through the landscape at Brookgreen.

A warm spring had the Brookgreen flowers already a touch past their prime during our visit in early April.
