Worth knowing first

Parking costs money
Only a paid lot, metered street parking and a paid garage are listed. Factor the fee in, or arrive by transit if you can.
Hours are not published
Google lists no opening times for this one. Daylight hours are the safe assumption.
Popular enough to be busy
2,641 reviews cuts both ways. Weekend afternoons draw a crowd, so go early or go midweek if you want it quiet.
Strongly seasonal
What is in bloom drives the whole visit. In winter this is a barer, much quieter place than the photographs suggest.
