Filoli Gardens

I took this picture at Filoli Gardens several years ago. Here is the link to my album. (Click on SLIDESHOW in the upper left-hand corner.)

Filoli is located about 40 minutes south of San Francisco, off Highway 280. The best time to visit is in mid-April, when all the daffodils and fruit trees are blooming. It's best to get there in the morning. You cannot enter after 2:30, and they close at 3:30. You need at least a couple of hours to see everything.


Here is a Google map showing you where Filoli is:

If you go to the Filoli Web site, you can see what flowers are blooming.
