GOVARDHAN GARDENS
FRUITS, SPICE AND NUT COLLECTION
UPDATE 2024 (500 SPECIES)
In order to bring some of these species "alive", I added links to
photographs that were mostly taken at Govardhan Gardens.
Some species were lost to Hurricane Maria (09/2017) and replanting is slowly progressing since then.
