I was really excited about visiting Phipps, but I have to say that I was disappointed. Two things put me off: they were having a plants and music exhibit, so there was rather loud music in several of the domes. I go to botanic gardens for plants and not loud noises, so I didn't stay long in those domes at all. I was also disappointed that when I asked about reciprocity with my local botanic gardens membership, the admissions lady rudely let me know that Phipps didn't have reciprocity with ANYONE. Ok. I get it. But you don't have to be cranky about it.
