Florida Botanical Gardens, Largo

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.

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.

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.

I am posting this for the people who want to visit during the Christmas light show. I would highly recommend this this is a great way to spend an evening the music the lights and the general atmosphere is fantastic. They request $ 10 donation but it is not a requirement. There is also a food vendor and restrooms if you need them. It is a great family outing . There is parking on several different sides and you can enter on any one of the parking lots. Make sure when you are meeting people that you both are at the same parking otherwise she will end up a complete opposite Inns of the Botanical Gardens just like I did.

I love this place. Free admission (with exception of Christmas time). It’s exquisitely kept. The foliage is EXCEPTIONAL, diverse, unique. This botanical garden is tops! . Frequented for morning walks along boardwalk and paths. Pet friendly. Note: some parts of the gardens are under construction as of today’s date. It does not distract from the experience. The gardens are just getting better.
