What would possess a couple to amass a collection of over 240 varieties of camellias? Here at Harry P. Leu Gardens, you’ll discover the answer is a love for plants. Harry P. Leu Gardens, a 50-acre botanical oasis in the heart of Orlando, isn’t just a feast for the eyes but a testament to a couple’s passion. In 1936, businessman Harry P. Leu and his wife, Mary Jane, purchased this property, and their travels around the globe transformed it. They brought back exotic plants, significantly shaping the gardens with their impressive collection of camellias and azaleas. In 1961, they gifted this treasure to the City of Orlando. Today, Harry P. Leu Gardens doesn’t just showcase the Leu’s passion. The gardens boast a rich tapestry of over 40 plant collections, a historic house museum, and a tropical stream garden. Each path you wander invites you to explore the world without ever leaving Orlando.
