Florida is called the "Sunshine state" and produces lots of Oranges. In Florida it NEVER snowed, so you could always go to the beach! Florida means "Flowery" Juan Ponce De Leon came to Florida in order to find the "Fountain of Youth" but he found Florida instead! He named it "Pascua de Florida" meaning "Feast of Flowers. Some people say he named it "Pascua de Florida" others say "Florida" but anyhow, it always will have the meaning "Flower" in it.
