Garden Island

English to Tagalog Art/Literary Geography popular name
Garden Island is not the real name of, but a nickname for a few islands around the world, because the island has lush vegetation, and lots of flowers. Such islands are Kauai in Hawaii, Huahine Island in Tahiti, Taveuni Island in Fiji, Jersey among the Channel Islands. I have two questions:
1. How would you translate this island nickname into Tagalog?
2. Is there any island in the Philippines (even in a lake) that has the nickname (in Tagalog of course) Garden Island?

Thank you.
