I didn't realize until about a week ago that Queen Creek had a garden of any sorts. Located in Desert Mountain Park, this demonstration garden reminds me of a very small-scale botanical garden with prickly pear cactus, sage, and other, more exotic plants that I can't remember the name of.
It would take maybe 20 minutes for the most avid plant enthusiast to meander its pink, crushed gravel paths--so definitely not worth a drive from Glendale--but if you're at Desert Mountain Park for a marathon day of organized kids' sports and need a break, the garden is definitely a pleasant escape.(Details: 22201 S. Hawes Rd., Queen Creek. 480-358-3700, http://www.queencreek.org/.)
