NAPLES, Fla. — In Southwest Florida sits a 170-acre world-class garden paradise.

Inside the Naples Botanical Garden sits endless floral beauty from rainforest scenery to waterlily-laden pools.

Opening in 2009, the Naples Botanical Garden has impressively become the youngest garden in history to receive the prestigious Garden Excellence Award.

"That's really unusual to be as young as we are," Vice President of Education and Interpretation, Britt Patterson-Weber, said. "We're not associated with any estate or anything like that. We started as a massive ecosystem restoration project, and then the designed cultivated gardens came after that."
