Reviews
"This is a delightful place to visit! Anytime of year is great but I especially live it during the winter months. The Bird of Paradise and Poinsettias alone are worth a visit!"
"Beautiful park. Some things not growing if course since it's November"
"I've heard great things about this place and was very excited to take my grandson. I don't even know if we saw the whole place because there was nobody to tell us where to go and what to see. There should be a map or something. We didn't see any butterflies, thank goodness for the turtles, we at least got some photos with them. The plant life is beautiful, but I still feel like we must have missed something."
"This was such an unexpected find. It was also just fabulous. We spent a couple of hours exploring and had a great time. It is absolutely worth checking out, and it's only $5"
"We had a nice time at the gardens, despite it being winter. It was nice and warm inside. Lots of butterflies and tortoises and even a resident cat. There are some amazing plants and blooms inside. I can't wait to check out the exterior gardens when the weather is a bit warmer. Although it being winter during our visit, we still explored the gardens and had a nice walk and enjoyed the sculptures. The staff was very friendly and there was a little gift shop with kids of cut and fun it's got sale."
