Florence is a city of brown, tan, and cream colored buildings, so when you spot plant life spot and smell the roses. The best gardens are fenced and sometimes charge a few euros. The Orto Botanic or the Giardino della Semplici originated as a formal garden for the Medici comprised of herbs for remedies. Currently, it's "not" being maintained by the University of Florence botantists. Hopefully, our 8 euros go towards the maintenance of the grounds.
This garden is the best portion of the Archeology Museum and guess what? It's off limits.
Haven't popped to the Boboli Garden, yet. It is the largest garden in Florence.
Ciao!
