Botanical Gardens

This will be another POI Factory Community built project. For those of you that have a Botanical Garden that you would like to see featured in this file please list it here with all the info including name, address, phone number and the Coordinates so that Don has an easy time maintaining the file for us;)

Thanks Don for making this happen, this is going to be great.

It just so happens that Jon and I will be going to our own local Botanical Garden here in Boise Idaho this wednesday for our daughters field trip with school.

I will post my Contribution later this afternoon.

This was a truly wonderful garden. The rainbow eucalyptus trees were an amazing site.
I could not find a number address, but the lat/long points were taken from the entrance with my GPS.

Has this street been renamed recently? I get an address of 909 East River Dr.

Sure thing Miss POI,

I edited the posts above with the corresponding latitude and longitude, except for this last one, whose coordinates are posted here. Seems one cannot edit a post once someone else quotes from it : )

Thanks!
