And with it's impressive collection of 11,000 tulips, Maine's Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens took the top spot. Others on the list include the Missouri Botanical Garden, known for having one of the biggest Orchid collections in the world and Frederik Meijer Gardens & Sculpture Park in Grand Rapids, Michigan which is home to the country's largest tropical butterfly exhibit in the spring.
