LARGO â Something is set to bloom this year at the Florida Botanical Gardens, and it isnât a new species of flower. Groundbreaking is expected to begin within the next two months on a Childrenâs Discovery Garden that will allow kids to experience nature and teach them to be good stewards of the environment. The new garden will be built on 2 acres of land along McKay Creek and will be adjacent to an acre of wetland and native plants, surrounded by pine, oak and palmettos. âThis is really an untapped resource,â said Emily Bloxam, communications coordinator for the Florida Botanical Gardens Foundation. âWe are really excited to get this project rolling.â
