Atlanta Blooms! The Botanical Garden





Atlanta set aside 30 acres
for flowers, plants & trees
in Midtown Atlanta.











The Gardens have grown and changed.  Visitors flock here for special exhibits and seasonal displays.  The grounds also host TV, film and professional photo shoots.  Movies shot here include Endless Love and Life As We Know It.  TV episodes shot here include The Real Housewives of Atlanta and Arrested Development.   Photos taken in these gardens have been used in Home Depot catalog.

The buildings here are available for weddings, receptions, special events and business meetings.

This place is spectacular!  Here are my favorites photos.
