Denver Botanic Gardens is truly
a garden lover's delight.
You'll be captivated by its
beauty no matter what season of
the year you visit. More than
15,000 species of plants are on
display in the 45 distinct
garden areas that stretch across
23 acres. Highlights include
the rock garden, tropical
conservatory, Japanese garden,
Monet's garden, Children's
Secret Path, Romantic garden,
elaborate container gardens and
sparkling water features.
Denver Botanic Gardens is host
to several special events
annually, such as summer
concerts, a plant sale, and
Blossoms of Light, when the
grounds are aglow with holiday
lights during the month of
December. Educational endeavors
include numerous classes and
lectures on a wide range of
garden-related topics throughout
the year. The library provides
a large collection of books,
magazines, and other materials
that visitors can use on site
and members may checkout. In
addition, several garden
societies and clubs sponsor
exhibits, plant sales and
lectures that are open to the
public.
New
features and ongoing renovations
are an incentive to visit
often. Colorado gardeners are
very fortunate to have this
gardening treasure in our
midst. For more information
