St. George Village Botanical Garden
At this 17-acre estate, fragrant flora grows amid the ruins of a 19th-century sugarcane plantation (the former overseer's house has been left open to the elements as a habitat for native fruit bats). There are miniature versions of each ecosystem on St. Croix, from a semiarid cactus grove to a verdant rainforest, along with walking trails, a small museum, and a collection of seashells. The garden's orchid and bromeliad blooms are impressive.
