Rio Grande Botanical Grdn--anybody been there?

14 years ago

We're visiting New Mexico next week and were thinking of spending some time at the Rio Grande Botanical Gardens in Albuquerque. Here in CA it's full-blast spring already, but since it's still freezing temps at night in NM, is there anything worth seeing in the RGBG this early in the year?

Many thanks for any suggestions or assistance!

Probably not. I'm from California originally, and I don't find the RGBG particularly interesting at this time of year. The aquarium next to RGBG is nice. Albuquerque Museum in Old Town is also a nice destination. Enjoy.

Darn, I was afraid it was a little too early in the season for gardens there. I guess we'll try the Museum instead, then. Thank you so much for the advice!
