I've been meaning to go to the Isabella Plantation in Richmond Park for two years. And while I know it sounds like an act of supreme laziness on my part, I'd heard that May/June was the best time to go, as all the flowers would be out, and it would be at its resplendent best. But the last couple of Mays and Junes just passed me by, and I never got around to going. But this past weekend, I did, and it was definitely worth the wait.
