Rincon Scenes
Photographs from our new home in Rincon, Puerto Rico
This week (March 24) while my son and grandchildren from Colorado are here visiting, we went up into the mountains near Maricao to visit Montoso Gardens. It is a 90 acre botanical garden, tropical flower and fruit farm, and nursery with over 600 species of exotic tropical flowers, fruits, nuts, spices, and palms owned and operated by Bryan Brunner and his brother David. Bryan came to Puerto Rico 20 years ago to study tropical horticulture and stayed. At 1500 feet elevation, the garden borders the Maricao State Forest. It is a beautiful place. Here are some pictures. Needless to say, Irene spent a few bucks on tropical plants.
