Just a few miles away, the 8-acre Enchanting Floral Gardens lives up to its name by blanketing eight acres in more than 1,500 exotic tropical and semi-tropical species, including orchids, hibiscus, and jade vines. The gardens are open daily from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Admission fee is $5.00 per person.

Both of these gardens make good side trips on the drive to the summit of Haleakala.
