OVERVIEW |
|
| |
|
|
| |
Hawaii Tropical Botanical Garden is a
spectacular Garden in a Valley on the Ocean
- acclaimed as one of the most beautiful
areas in all Hawaii. In this garden valley,
nature trails meander through a true
tropical rainforest, crossing bubbling
streams, passing several beautiful
waterfalls and the exciting ocean vistas
along the rugged Pacific coast.
The Garden displays a vast variety of palms,
heliconias, gingers, bromeliads, and
hundreds of other rare and exotic plants
from all parts of the tropical world -
presently more than 2,000 species, and the
collection is always growing! This
non-profit nature preserve is dedicated to
providing a plant sanctuary, a living seed
bank, and a study center for trees and
plants of the tropical world and to
preserving the incredibly beautiful natural
environment of Onomea Bay for generations to
come. |
