The US Botanical Gardens had some amazing plants. I don't remember the name of any of them but they were truly unique. More than 200 years ago, George Washington had a vision for the capital city of the United States that included a botanic garden financed by Congress that would demonstrate and promote the importance of plants to our nation. The gardens were established in 1821 and currently has about 26,000 plants.
