It takes me a few hours to go thru Filoli but I am taking tons of pictures as I do. You can go thru the house too. It was the house used on the TV show Dynasty. I do not know if the show was shown where you are.

I tracked down where the nursery got the foliage vrieseas from. Actually I even tracked down the place in Hawaii that sent them. LOL. They told me they were going to get 150 in Wednesday so I was there bright and early. But they had not come! So I was told to come back the next day, I did. And still none. So I went in today and still none! I asked a worker and he said he would check. Turned out they were in just not put out. So he let me go in the back and pick thru them all! Most were Red Chestnuts. But lotsof others too. I was a glutton. I picked 15 though I did put a couple back so I am not sure how many I ended up with. I will have to count them again.

My favorite.
