Going to visit a local botanical center and have never been to one before. Thinking of a general lens like the Canon 17-55 EF-S f2.8 would be the most versatile. Anyone have other suggestions?

Nice shots. A macro is always nice if you have one as well as an UWA which can allow you to experiment with interesting angles and points of view that people sometimes overlook.
