Photos: Take a walk at Sky

If you want to take a walk to see flowers, greenery, and experience the smell of earth - but want to stay out of the rain - the beautiful glass greenhouses of Sky Nursery are a lovely experience.

The coffee shop is now advertising sandwiches, so you can have an extended visit.

For those who prefer their gardening indoors, there is a large house plant section. The staff are very knowledgeable. I once went in and said - I want to buy three different house plants for people whose idea of plant care is pouring their leftover coffee in the dirt. The staff seemed to enjoy the challenge and sold me three beautiful and extremely hardy plants. Of course I was wise enough not to go back and check on them after I delivered them...

And then there are edible flowers.
