Mark,

I would add the Huntington Gardens, Libraries and Art Galleries near Los 
Angeles, California.

If you are in the Chicago area, be sure to visit Boyce Tankersley at the 
Chicago Botanic Gardens.  In St. Louis, Missouri, there is the incomparable 
Missouri Botanic Gardens.

Have a great trip!
