点评:I realize that I am a dissenting voice, but we were deeply unimpressed by this botanical garden, and found the entry price dramatically in excess of the value afforded. As a passionate gardener, I go to botanical gardens to see fine specimens of plants presented in an aesthetically Elevated and natural environment. I was astonished to see many dozens of plastic plants, including plastic boxwood plants positioned on top of fake mushrooms, cardboard pink flamingos everywhere, and a limited selection of naturally beautiful plants to see. Interspersing these fake elements among the real plant material cheapened the whole look of the garden dramatically. This was not just in one spot of the garden, but distributed throughout in large and gaudy displays. The most beautiful part of the gardens were the few large,mature trees, which had breathtaking displays of roots in wonderful natural patterns. Unfortunately, this was the minority. I don’t go to a garden of this type to see fake butterflies, fake plants, cartoon cut outs of fake flowers and fake mushrooms. Perhaps this would appeal most strongly to a small child. If I could’ve asked for my money back, I would.
翻译:我知道我的观点可能比较另类,但我们对这座植物园实在非常失望,门票价格远远超过了它所提供的价值。作为一名园艺爱好者,我去植物园是为了欣赏在优美自然的环境中展示的精美植物标本。然而,我却惊讶地发现园内摆放着几十株塑料植物,包括放在假蘑菇上的塑料黄杨木,到处都是纸板做的粉色火烈鸟,而真正美丽的植物却寥寥无几。将这些人造元素穿插在真正的植物之间,极大地降低了整个花园的档次。这种情况并非只出现在花园的某个角落,而是遍布各处,形成大量俗艳的装饰。花园里最美的部分是几棵高大茂盛的树木,它们根系盘根错节,呈现出令人叹为观止的自然形态。可惜的是,这样的树木只是少数。我去这种类型的花园可不是为了看假蝴蝶、假植物、卡通剪纸做的假花和假蘑菇。或许这些东西对小孩子来说会更有吸引力吧。如果可以的话,我肯定会要求退款。
