There are natural parks everywhere in San Juan Del Sur, Nicaragua and you will most definitely see beautiful flowers and trees there. Ometepe, which is the island in Lake Nicaragua, is extremely nice with all the flowers and trees.
Just walking around San Juan Del Sur, you will already see a lot of flowers and trees especially now that it is rainy season. Everything is green and it is beautiful.

You will see flowers, trees and plants after 5 minutes of driving, 10 minutes of biking or 20 minutes of walking. These are a mile away. Once you leave the last street in San Juan del Sur, it is an entire forest behind the township.
Among the flowers you will see are the girasol (which is the sunflower, pictured), the cobano and amapola.

You will see trees and flowers everywhere in San Juan Del Sur. 
There are picturesque places where they have bougainvillea (bottom picture), which is locally called veranera. Hibiscus (top picture) is everywhere, so there is lots of beautiful greenery. Palm trees line the beaches soaring into the skies. We have royal palms, Miami palms, robeliana, ginger, etc. San Juan Del Sur has a very tropical feel because of these trees and flowers.

We have royal palms, Miami palms, robeliana, ginger, etc. San Juan Del Sur has a very tropical feel because of these trees and flowers. There are two fantastic nurseries, which is called viveros, where you can buy different kinds of plants for gardening. Gardening is very popular here in San Juan Del Sur because plants are so cheap. You can buy a 20-foot palm tree for US $15 or small plants for a matter of cents and these plants grow very easily. Many expats build quite lush gardens because the plants are cheap.
For an increased variety of plants, there is a little town called Catarina, which is the primary plant production area here in Nicaragua. It is one of my favorite places here. Catarina is about an hour away from San Juan Del Sur.
When you come through Catarina form Managua, as you are going to San Juan Del Sur, the whole street or the whole Pan American Highway is lined with all these different nurseries selling every imaginable tropical plant that you can think of or see. It is even worthwhile just spending a day going into the jungle and going to these nurseries and picking up plants very affordably.
Taking a day trip to Catarina is quite a popular pastime. You go there, buy plants, come back home, and plant them in your garden. As an expat, I have certainly done that a lot. I have very lush gardens around my house.
