Palma Sola Botanical Park


Palma Sola Botanical Park (10 acres) is a botanical garden located at 9800 17th Avenue N.W. Bradenton, Florida, USA. The park showcases collections of rare palms, fruits, and flowering trees, as well as three lakes, a butterfly garden, gazebo, pavilion, and playground. It is open daily without charge.
Overview
The park began in 1990 when a group organized to save the Manatee County palm nursery by turning it into a botanical garden. In 1993 a non-profit foundation was formed, which in 1996 agreed with Manatee County Government to establish the Palma Sola Botanical Park. Today's park is a joint venture between the Manatee County parks department and the nonprofit Palma Sola Botanical Park Foundation.
