Shame on you if you travel to Orlando regularly to visit the Mouse but you've never adventured to Harry P. Leu Gardens! Set on nearly 50 acres, the property features the historic homestead known as the Mizell-Leu House, the original part of which was constructed in 1888 and is listed in the National Register of Historic Places. The Gardens is actually a collection of several different gardens and plant collections, and has an extensive and rare collection of camellias. Amazing, beautiful, and still a chore with two small children. Nevertheless, I will always try to make it a stop in future trips to the big O.
