What people say

"Very nice Botanical Garden featuring all the plants from the Arizona desert landscape. For us, who have spent a lot of time in the desert, the park was a bit underwhelming. But if you haven't had a lot of time in the desert, you will really enjoy this garden! Keep a look out for the butterflies and humingbirds, and if you need a snack or drink, stop by the restraunt! It looked fancy! If you get the chance, come here at sunset. We heard that's when all the magic happens! $24.95 per person"
"Immerse yourself in the stunning beauty of 50,000 desert plants at Desert Botanical Garden. Cacti, succulents, and wildflowers burst with color against the backdrop of the red Papago Buttes. This Arizona icon has been around for 80 years, and it's not just a pretty face. They're a leader in desert conservation, with trails to explore, world-class exhibits, fun events, and classes to teach you all about the desert's unique plants. It's a must-see for any visitor!"
"This was a surprisingly beautiful location. The Desert Botanical Garden is home to a vast collection of extraordinary plant life PLUS a museum and butterfly center. Take a break and enjoy the garden! Oh! Plently of places to get a great view!"
