There was nothing I disliked about the Botanical Garden. Wonderful and distinct garden areas with lots of meandering paths for quiet walks. We went when the irises were in bloom and the display was spectacular.

weren't planning on visiting the garden, but just happened upon it and so glad we went. the grounds were beautiful, most of the flowers were in bloom and it was easy to get around- only negative is that there is so much to see I didn't have enough time for it all. MUST SEE!!!

Friends who live in St Louis took us here and it was wonderful. We had lunch in the restaurant and it was quite good and reasonably priced. We did not have time to see all of the gardens but the ones we did see, irises, roses, herbs and the tropical garden enclosure, were wonderful. The labeling of the plants and...

Walk, escape the city hustle. Enjoy the ethnic cultural shows and the grounds are so so lovely. Don't forget to go in the fall and buy some exotic bulbs

Time magazine once ran a cover story about the Missouri Botanical Garden, which says it all! Widely considered the best botanical garden in the country, we saw the Chinese Lantern festival in 2012 and loved it! The Japanese Gardens are a highlight of the park, as also the Climatron. Go with a lot of stamina and time to spare if...

No matter how many times I visit the Missouri Botanical Gardens, I always find something new and breathtaking. Today was extra special because of the Chinese Culture Days celebration. Arriving about 12:30 pm I was able to catch the second Grand Parade, and then the Chinese Acrobatic show in Cohen Amphitheater with some amazing acts. Throughout the park, the azaleas...

The garden is different each time I visit. Love the coy in the pond. Great staff willing to answer questions. Even on hot days shade makes the garden comfortable.

We enjoyed the botanical gardens and wished that there was a bit more in bloom. It is well done and worth 2-3 hours.
