The botanical meetings are in Tucson Aridzona. The natural landscape is quite lovely high desert; saguaro cacti abound. The resort is nice but surrounded by unnatural landscape too, a golf course. See if you can tell the difference in the image above. What a remarkable waste of water, even if it is reclaimed waste water. Such a simple landscape as a monoculture of grass takes a huge water and energy input to maintain. The botanists have all taken walks through xero-scaped areas and they report them as lovely. No one has said a thing about the golf course. What is there to say?
