The whole island of Madeira is a rich,luscious oasis of greenery speckled with gorgeous gardens. But it wasnt until the 1960s that the islanders were able to realize their dream of creating one enormous botanical garden. The Madeira Botanical Garden opened on what was previously a private estate and now houses more than 2000 magnificent plants.
The garden is divided into several distinct areas. section of the garden is reserved for indigenous and endemic plants, while another section of it is reserved for succulents and enormous cacti. You can also find a section of agricultural and aromatic plants and trees total with juicy fruits and beautiful blossoms, or as well as a topiary section filled with differently shaped trees.
What is perhaps the most iconic slice of this garden is the section to this garden is the section of colorful and patterned flower beds. These meticulously crafted displays create a visually striking mix of geometry and an aromatically pleasing medley of aromas. The planted patterns changed as the plants age and need to be replaced.
The garden also has a small natural history museum,where you can find a collection of fossils and outmoded taxidermy specimens, as well as a bird park full of beautiful, or exotic birds.
