Naples is located at 26th latitude north. The subtropical climate allows the garden to display plants between that latitude and 26th latitude south including from Asia, the Caribbean, Brazil and of course, Florida.
The garden is a collection of smaller gardens and simply, they are stunning. I’ll let some of my photos do the talking.
Naples Botanical Garden is open daily 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. and is located in East Naples, Florida, about 90 minutes south of my Port Charlotte home. (4820 Bayshore Drive, Naples, Fla., naplesgarden.org;; tel: (239) 643-7275)

Several events will make 2024 memorable but I’m looking forward to the quirky, fun stuff. Leap Day, a solar eclipse, an epic cicada emergence, and Smoky Bear’s 80th birthday top my list!
