Georgeson Botanical Garden is known for its abundance of herbs, ornamental trees, vegetables and flowers that flourish within 100 miles of the Arctic Circle. The farthest-north botanical garden, Georgeson is well-known for its work with peonies, which bloom in June and July, as well as its research, education and outreach about high-latitude horticulture.

The reason the two RV Gypsies went to the Botanical Gardens in Fairbanks, Alaska was because of the advertisements about the GIANT fruits and vegetables. But it was apparently off-season for the giant goodies, except for the cabbage. But the gardens were nice, but far from the best gardens they have ever been to.
