With a daily circulation of nearly a million copies and an even larger digital distribution, USA Today has a distribution comparable to that of the Wall Street Journal and the New York Times , noted Robert Price, director of the Vallarta Botanical Garden, commenting the importance of the medium conducting the survey.
Before the summer and with the recovery of flights from the United States and the announcement of new ones , this result adds a lot of value, since every year thousands of North Americans are attracted by this type of natural park.
With a tropical location at almost the same latitude as Hawaii, plants in Puerto Vallarta naturally thrive. However, under the care of a dedicated team, these are pampered to their full potential and displayed on the landscape for maximum drama, and the results are astonishing.
