Botanica Gardens, Portsmouth RI

This place is a beautiful paradise lovingly composed over years/decades of careful nurturing. It is a serene, creative atmosphere or a garden (if you prefer) that will magically lift anyone from their earthly woes by just walking through.
We were asked not to photograph. To this I must say, you needn't worry about people "stealing" ideas.like making bread -give the same 4 ingredients to 10 people, flour, water, yeast, and salt, and you will get 10 different results. To the proprietors I say, relax, your secret is safe.

Local flower shop tucked out of the way. Beautiful layout. Nice people.

Beautiful place, owner was a bit rude, yelled at my daughter, who is 8, because he thought she was taking pictures. Plants are also a bit overpriced compared to other places.
