Kanapaha Botanical Gardens (Gainesville, Florida) is comprised of 24 major collections visually accessible from a 1 ½ mile paved walkway. These include the state’s largest public display of bamboos and the largest herb garden in the Southeast. Some of Kanapaha’s gardens are organized taxonomically; others demonstrate principles of ecology or natural selection. Kanapaha’s signature plants include a premier stand of Chinese royal bamboo (Wong Chuk).
The Gardens open at 9:00 AM. Admission to the garden is $10. The clubs outing is scheduled from 9:00 – 12:30 at which time we will depart for lunch at BJ’s Restaurant & Brew House . For those wishing to stay longer, the gardens do permit picnic baskets. Alternatively, keep your receipt and you can go out to lunch and return.
