Floyd L Wray Memorial Foundation

Botanical Garden and Everglades Wildlife Sanctuary with the largest collection of Florida native wildlife and 18 of the largest trees of their species. Spend the day in this 60 acre botanical garden and Everglades Wildlife Sanctuary, with rescued native wildlife, some of South Florida's oldest and last remaining jungle forest, the Wray Home Museum, and 22 FL Champion Trees- the largest of their species. Flamingo Garden's mission is to depict and preserve the natural and cultural heritage of South Florida and the Everglades in our botanical gardens and wildlife sanctuary: by providing a repository for endangered plant and wildlife species and a living library of specific taxa available for research and education; by inspiring an appreciation for the beauty and diversity of tropical and subtropical plants from around the world that can be grown in our area; by guiding the public in environmentally responsible and aesthetic horticultural practices; and by encouraging environmental awareness and Everglades preservation to visiting tourists, residents, and school children.
