4.5Tropical Ranch Botanical Gardens(6 reviews) - The Only Beautiful & Exotic Florida Botantical Gardens in Martin County, Florida Gardens This small themed botanical garden(s) is hidden in the lush residential/commercial properties of Martin County. It is a very "Green" tropical paradise supported by volunteers and owners who appreciate the natural Florida landscape and preserve it without pesticides and poisons. Their "Mission Statement: Our mission is to educate the public and stimulate interest in using the correct plants to landscape their properties. Also, to instill new ideas in planting techniques by offering a multi-theme garden environment." My friend, an avid gardener, like myself, had told me about this place and their plant "sales". We had a great afternoon walking the gardens, talking to the owners and buying bamboo and plants. Friendly, very knowledgeable and in touch with their community. Weddings, tours, parties,lectures/speakers, plant sales are on going. Appointment required except on sale days and donations accepted in place of entrance fee. Need water, hat and mossie spray.See more..
