I had a great time with a group of 38 folks, including gardeners, spouses and friends, on a trip to Costa Rica in January 2012.
We visited gardens, rode zip lines, stayed in fabulous hotels and saw innumerable bromeliads and orchids plus the jungle-like rain forest.
I had so much fun, it makes me want to lead another trip! Suggestions so far include Italy, Cuba, Indonesia and Australia gardens/New Zealand glaciers.
Would you like to go too?
