Heathcote Botanical Gardens are one of Fort Pierce's most beautiful outdoor attractions, spanning five acres along Savannah Road. The gardens were originally established in 1985 by landscape architect Molly Crimmons and her husband Jim after the purchase of five acres of land from the City of Fort Pierce. Today, the lovely subtropical botanical garden facility is the home of the renowned James J. Smith Bonsai Gallery, the United States' largest public tropical bonsai collection, which showcases more than 100 gorgeous trees. Themed garden rooms include a Japanese garden, a reflection garden, an herb garden, a rainforest display, and a palm and cycad walk.
