BOTANICAL GARDEN
HORTICULTURE & HISTORY
Pinecrest Gardens, formerly Parrot Jungle, an iconic Old Florida tourist attraction, is a 14-acre botanical and cultural arts garden within a hardwood hammock and bald cypress slough. It is listed on the National Historic Register and is recognized for its significance by the Cultural Landscape Foundation. Exotic and native plants are found coexisting along the original Snapper Creek bed, an important Aboriginal American route connecting the Everglades to Biscayne Bay. The Creek’s banks preserve the dramatic karst limestone rock formations of fissures, cliff overhangs, and a 30,000-year-old solution hole. The Garden features many rare tropical plants: palms, orchids, ferns, succulents, and flowering trees in a unique, historic landscape. It also contains several natural and man-made ponds and is an important habitat for various fish and crustaceans, including several threatened species.
