I forgot about Lompoc, sometimes it is pretty amazing to see all the
flower fields. But the tour is only that one day in April, it looks
like. I will have to remember that for later, maybe I can go some year.
Isn't this the place that grew that field of larkspur in the shape of
the flag? That picture was all over the internet for a while.

North of SB a ways is Lompoc. Bodger Seeds has acres and acres of
growing grounds in the area, so it's often quite colorful just to ride
through the area. There is also a tour of their greenhouses. See

http://www.ci.lompoc.ca.us/departments/parks_rec/greenhouse.htm

Bodger is a major wholesale-only producer of flower seeds that are
repackaged by retailers--Parks, Burpee, etc.

The last time I went to California I got the best advice from all of
you.  I have been invited to my sisters place in Santa Barbara Sept
12-20th.  Do any of you have any advice on gardens to see or I would
also love to take a watercolor painting class.
Any advice this time.  I will fly into LAX on the 12th.  I looked up
Huntington Gardens and that looks wonderful.  Any advice on that?
Thank you in advance,
