DENVER BOTANIC GARDENS

Profile

Green inside and out, the Gardens is considered one of the top botanic gardens in the United States and a pioneer in water conservation.  Accredited by the American Association of Museums, the Gardens' living collections encompass specimens from the tropics to the tundra, 
showcasing a plant palette chosen to thrive in Colorado's semi-arid climate.  The Gardens' dynamic, 24-acre urban oasis in the heart of the city has been a neighborhood gem since 1951, offering unforgettable opportunities to flourish with unique garden experiences for the whole 
family - as well as world-class education and plant conservation research programs.  Additional sites at Denver Botanic Gardens at Chatfield, a 750-acre wildlife and native plant refuge in Jefferson County; and Mount Goliath, a high-altitude trail and interpretive site on the Mount Evans Scenic Byway, extend this experience throughout the Front Range.  For more information, visit us online at www.botanicgardens.org .
