Ventnor Botanic Garden
Ventnor Botanic Garden Review
Laid out over 22 acres, these gardens contain more than 3,500 species of trees, plants, and shrubs. The impressive greenhouse includes banana trees and a waterfall; a visitor center puts the subtropical and display gardens into context. Note that the garden's ownership has changed, and admission may increase; call to check.
