Luther Burbank Gardens

The entrance to the gardens at the Luther Burbank home and greenhouse in Santa Rosa, California.
The Luther Burbank rose developed by Luther Burbank.
It was already blooming.
Along with the Shasta Daisy, which he developed.
It took him 19 years to develop the Shasta Daisy before releasing it to the public in 1901.
He developed the spineless cactus for cattle feed.
The Luther Burbank stop is always worth a stop for a quiet walk in the gardens.
