Must see!! St. Johns Botanical Garden - When I visited my friends in Florida, coming from Germany, we went to St Johns Botanical Garden and Nature Preserve. This visit was quite an experience! Under the canopy of oak trees grew every kind of palm tree imaginable. Planted 20 years ago, you could admire full grown, rare species of palms as well as newly planted plants that will take their time to grow into another beautiful palm tree. You can also admire flora from the old and new worlds ..... It was so impressive to be introduced to this very special place in ST. John's County close to Hastings. Away from the normal Florida tourist attractions I was able to be taken to this jewel of a botanical site, whilst listening to a western music performance and enjoying catered food in a wonderful little cafe-like area. I would recommend this place to anyone who loves nature and wants to relax in a junglelike atmosphere. I thank Dr John for his incredible dedication to creating such a wonderful place for everyone to enjoy a rare botanical site and where research is being done to discover the wonders of Floridian nature.
