UPDATE DEC. 2012:
After speaking to the owner of the Botanical Gardens, we learned that there is an outside gate that closes in the late afternoon / evening. In order to allow access to the cache at all hours, we have moved the cache to a new location, right outside the gate. The final coordinates have been updated accordingly.
