I know landscaping is not a SFI priority. But which Six Flags Park has the best Landscaping. From the pictures it looks like a 3 way tie between St Louis and Great America and Great Adventure.
From what I have seen SFStl. Notice I have not been there.
SFA would win for the best "Desert Landscaping.";)
I agree with coasterguy, SFMM does have the best, however they don't landscape underneath the rides which makes me mad. Under Goliath there are 3 foot tall weeds and a bunch of concrete, the same with collosus. On the other hand the midways always look nice and all they other rides have landscaping. As for themeing SFMM is the worst.
you think SFMM has the worst theming???? I can tell you have not been to many other Six Flags parks. At least SFMM tries to theme (even though most of the time the themes for rides don't fit in the right sections of the park), but there are many Six Flags parks that have basically no theming what so ever (SFEG, SFA, SFKK). SFMM also does a good job at theming rides when they want to (Goliath's queue line, station, and tunnel are very well themed).

When I get finished w/ SF, theming and landscaping will be KEY, as will staff training, customer relations, and ride operations/maintenance...I have a dream, and it WILL be realized...

Why do people seem to think that SFA has no theming? What do you call that big*****"S" in front of Superman? What about the 17 placards down the Batwing path? How about all the building in either the Olde Boston or Coyote Creek section? Now SFA has a dearth of TREES, but there is theming out there.

If SFWoA allows the theming to flow from the old Seaworld side.
-----------------
SFMM has the best landscape, a green mountian oasis, in the middle of a desert...
SFNE has nice theming
-----------------
I've been to only 3 parks but have rode alot of kinds like Wood, Hyper,Wild Mouse,Corkscrew,and Inverted
SFNE & Canobie Lake park RULES!!!!!
I think that SFSTl looks really nice and actually fun. The mine train pics I have seen make it look very nice.

SFMM has the desert, the mountains, the forest, it has everything. And when someone said Goliath has huge weeds under it, those are the trees!!! Duh

X is the best and it beats all da rest!...Coasterlicius!
I agree, SFNE has a great theme/landscaping to it, compared to SFDL, SFMM, and SFWoA....
coasterguy1515, I think they were referring to the area directly below the ride. Where it's foundation is. Theses areas are NOT themed on any of the coasters at SFMM. SFMM does a good job of theming the areas surrounding the rides, but very little theming on the actual ride itself. Rides such as Big Bad Wolf and Montu are themed throughout the ride itself, whereas rides such as Ninja and Riddlers Revenge are themed only in the queue and station areas. You see? Not saying that SF is the only place that does this. Cedar Point has far less theming on their coasters with the exception of Disaster Transport (which everybody complains about its' theming). (Mine train coasters not included). I do enjoy good theming, but for the 2-3 minutes of the actual ride I cant see that much priority in theming. Goliath's queue (when the misters are on) is the best themed queue. The mist is SO thick that it really completes the "rainforest" effect/theme.

I think SFSTL has the best landscaping. It is a very beautiful park and a lot of people say its the most beautiful park in the Six Flags Chain. Some even say its a close second to BGW.

LoadedG has not been to DD at IOA? j/k, Goliath is really nicely themed and landscaped, but DD's queue (I think it's the longest in the world) was designed for people to have to wait a long time...guess they didn't realize that it would rival Gemini for people-moving capacity...

Have you guys even been to SFMM? Have you taken a stroll through S:TE's, B:TR, Goliath, Riddler's Revenge, and Ninjas queues at all? SFMM's landsacping is steller. Just look at rides like Reveloution, Ninja, and Goldrusher.

SFMM line cutters are the braviest in the world.
Not one of us can say which park has the best landscaping unless you've visited every single Six Flags park. Even then it would only be an opinion, so instead maybe we should answer what parks have good themeing. :)

We're talking landscaping, not panoramic views, If you built a park on farmland, you might have a foliage problem like SFA, on a lighter note, SFA's entire expansion area to the west is ALL BIG TREES, so you can expect a little more shade, sometime in the future.
