Wickham Park: Office Gardens

Several Florida native plants can be found in the gardens adjacent to the Wickham Park office. The following photos were taken in 2006 and used in the "Wildflowers of Wickham Park" poster I donated to the park.

  1. The poster that Wayne mentions is a beauty - be sure to stop by the Wickham Park offices and look at it. I'm lucky enough to have a framed copy, with the key - 108 wildflowers, total.
