Flamingo Gardens sprawls its rare tropical plants, massive oaks and collection of Florida birds and other tropical critters over 60 serene acres. The gardens are one of the region's few remaining citrus groves and home to a large collection of wading birds. You can chug around the grounds on a narrated tram tour or explore the Wray Botanical Collection and historic Wray Home (circa 1933). Discounts are available for senior citizens, students, military and AAA members.
