Mounts' gardens and programs provide the best horticultural and botanical information available related to South Florida's unique plants and environment. Mounts displays tropical and subtropical plants from around the world, including plants native to Florida, exotic trees, tropical fruit, herbs, citrus, palms and much more. As a component of the Palm Beach County Cooperative Extension Service, and through it's affiliation with the University of Florida, Mounts is the place to connect with Extension Horticulturists, Master Gardeners, the Florida Yards and Neighborhoods Program, and professional horticultural advisors. Through Mounts lectures and workshops, visitors may access the best available talent to help them appreciate and enjoy South Florida.

Plants from six continents grace Mounts Botanical Garden's fourteen acres. Eighteen major plant collections reflect the tremendous horticultural opportunities provided by Palm Beach County's unique growing environment. From temperate North American trees to the rarest of tropical fruits, from Florida natives to edible landscapes, from aquatics to arid-land plants, Mounts offers something for every taste and interest.
