The center includes nursery facilities operated by Fairchild Tropical Botanic Garden on eight acres leased by the Center to the Garden. The center's collections provide genetically diverse population samples of wild-collected palms and cycads, with thorough documentation of each plant. They aim to represent the full morphologic and genetic diversities within a species throughout its known native geographic range. As of 2004 the gardens contained a total of 997 taxa in 4,761 accessions and 10,809 plants. These included: Palms - 400 taxa (309 of which were wild collected) in 1,788 accessions (1,048 wild collected) and 5,754 plants (4,248 wild collected) Cycads - 202 taxa (172 wild) in 1,033 accessions (802 wild) and 2,758 plants (2,198 wild).

However, Griffith noted, a third of the garden's current property would likely be underwater in a century due to climate change.
