I went on a tour two years ago with a group. I wasn't expecting to really love it, since I'm not really into tropicals and exotics, etc., but I ended up having a blast! We went in January, and had a beautiful sunny day. Our group was broken down into smaller groups of about 5, and we each had a tour guide, who was an employee - in my group's case, we got the founder's grandson, so it was nice to hear him reminisce about his grandparents. For instance, he remembered when his grandfather or grandmother planted a certain tree, etc.

The tour was very informal, very relaxed and slow-paced, our host took his time, was very patient and answered all our questions, and we all had a wonderful time. They have some very unusual stuff, their greenhouses are chock-full, and to be surrounded by that in the middle of winter was heaven.

I would definitely recommend a visit, and if you are going to have a group, I would recommend setting up a tour ahead of time. Easy to do and to me, (who had no idea of what she was looking at, lol!) it was worth having a knowledgable guide with us.
