Very peaceful place where the master gardeners are approachable and don't mind answering your questions. I see a lot of work and care going into this place on a daily basis. The only downside is they're only open to the public on Tuesdays, according to signage.

This garden is just lovely. It earned a Gold level recognition for Florida Friendly Landscape practices. It is a small garden, very manageable for those who void a lot of walking. Worth the visit and is located near Edison and Ford Estates. Highly recommend!!
