Is it known which sorts of flowers and other things were grown in these gardens? And is there anywhere drawings of them? It all sounds so lovely, terraced gardens, irrigation channles... a little bit like ancient Egypt in fact, hehe! Imagine how much work that went into turning infertile land into gardens - but that was neccessary for their survival. The more I learn about the Azteks, the more intrigued I get - what a contrast to their sacrifical habits!
