about the florida garden
The Karen and Robert Scott Florida Garden displays the essence of the Florida landscape, encouraging us to renew our connection with the natural elements that draw us to this land of sunshine. The central feature of this garden is the Great Circle. This circular form is reminiscent of the numerous pot lakes one sees when flying over Southwest Florida. The Great Circle is formed by a circular planting of sabal palms, Florida's State Tree, underplanted with bougainvillea and silver palmetto. Within the Great Circle are swathes of Florida's most beautiful grasses and wild flowers.
