The tropical gardens are housed in 15 temperature-controlled greenhouses and feature exotic birds (Macaw, Cockatoo, Amazon Parrot), home grown tropical plants, a small produce market, domestic and miniature animals, kids rides, an 18 hole mini golf course, home decor shopping, and a restaurant. == History == Colasanti's started producing vegetables and greenhouse crops in 1941, they also had a small fruit stand. In 1955 their greenhouses began growing lemon and orange trees. In 1972 cactus and tropical plants were added to Colasanti's production. Today, Colasanti's has a wide variety of indoor and seasonal plants. It has expanded into a local family entertainment centre and tourist attraction. It is currently a fourth generation family owned and operated business.
