It would be difficult to visit every public garden of America, but it is possible to visit most virtually — maybe not the same as a visit but a good alternative. This list features websites that include gardening information as well as information about the garden. Many are not gardens that would be possible to re-create here in the Texas Hill Country. However, you might find them well worth a virtual visit.
