We happened to visit while the corpse flower was blooming and it was phenomenal! The gardens in general provide for a wide variety of vegetations and fauna variety. I was a little disappointed that multiple gardens were closed for special events, and felt like I spent a good bit of effort having to dodge professional photographers of wedding parties, or parties standing in walkways waiting their turn for photos. I would recommend checking the gardens out, but be ready for special events to take priority over visitors.
