Florida Botanical Gardens

What a lovely place to visit…and it’s free. This is a great place to visit for all ages. There are many acres of beautiful trees and flowers and even some wildlife to admire and photograph. The paths are easy to navigate and meander throughout the park. Beauty is everywhere. The is a heritage village beside the park that does require an admission charge but it was closed on the day we visited. A great place for a walk or to immerse yourself in beauty.

Thank you for being dog friendly! What an incredible experience for the whole family. We so enjoyed our time here. So much to see and smell. We all felt at peace when we left (and we all wanted to do another lap around).

We are so grateful you had the marked signs for the different trees and flowers. Love the QR code on the sidewalk for the map. Huge thank you for being buggy accessible with the sidewalk, too!

Highly recommend! We will be back!

Had such a great experience here visiting for the lights. It was a perfect night to walk around and see all the different light displays.
All the lights and grounds are so beautiful but my favorite is the tree decorated in the wedding garden, it's stunning.
We haven't had the chance to visit the garden during the day but are excited to do so. Can't wait for the children's garden as well that is being built right now.

Very cool place! We visited on our last day of vacation and we were unexpectedly surprised with how big it was. Many different varieties of plants and herbs as well as different gardens and structures to look at. They were doing some construction which at times was somewhat difficult to navigate around but nothing too bad. Be prepared to walk and make sure you have a map because it seems easy to get lost! We will be visiting again when we are in the area.

I have lived in Florida all my life and never visited the Botanical Gardens until recently. I have gone 3 times now. I have enjoyed it just that much. If you are looking somewhere to enjoy beautiful flowers, cactus, succulents and much more, this is your spot. The whole family would enjoy the gardens. The walking paths are nice. Anyone using a wheelchair would not have a issue maneuvering through the gardens. There are a lot of areas to sit and enjoy the view or to cool off, Florida definitely gets warm. I hope you enjoy the pictures and it will give you an idea what is in store if you drop by.
