Unbelievable Acres Botanic Gardens (1 ha / 2.5 acres) is a private, nonprofit botanical garden located at 475 63rd Trail North, West Palm Beach, Florida. Tours are given between 1 and 5 p.m. on the second Saturday of every month. An admission fee is charged.
The garden was established in 1970 by Gene Joyner, who has developed and maintained it since. It is now one of Florida's largest private collections of tropical fruit trees, with a 30 m (100 foot) high tree canopy.
The garden contains some 2000 varieties of plants, including more than 170 varieties of fruit trees, with 92 types of citrus, and 35 types of banana and plantain trees. It also includes orchids, bromeliads, palms, and ferns, as well as less well-known plants such as jaboticaba trees.
