" I just returned from a sojourn to San Antonio Botanical Gardens and thought I would share some thoughts for warm fourth dimension . The garden was established in 1980 and covers 38 acres . It offers a variety of more typical gardens – formal , show , Japanese , Sensory , and go up , but it also has a large area focused on Texas ; 11 acres to be precise . One wanders through Hill Country , East Texas Pineywoods and South Texas ironic land tree and shrub . There ’s a bird watch area as well as several conservatories . "
