These gardens come in very different varieties. Many of them are simply parks with paths to walk through, benches to sit on, and small areas to take pictures and bird watch. These types of Palm Beach gardens look very different from season to season and even from month to month. They are generally left for nature to deal with other than clean up, pruning and general layout. So these gardens, which are actually more like parks, are generally more popular in the spring, summer and early fall.

Other types of Palm Beach gardens are housed in glass buildings, or greenhouses. The sunlight is generally strong enough and warm enough to support life inside of an enclosed area all year round in Palm Beach. These types of green house gardens are sometimes even bigger than the outdoor gardens. They have various rooms with collections of different types of plants in each. The best part about these inside Palm Beach gardens is that they have the ability to sustain vegetation that is not native to the Florida area. Temperatures as well as moisture can be adjusted in each room separately and therefore one can see plants native to place all over the world, all under one roof.

There also other types of Palm Beach gardens. These are ones that are kept covered up during the colder months, and the plants are taken care of as they would be inside of a green house. However, come the warm months of April, the roof is lifted and these plants are exposed to the natural elements. These kinds of gardens again, are able to house a different variety of plant life than the year round exposed and year round green housed gardens.
