About this place

A botanical gardens occupying 12 acres in a park designed by Frederick Law Olmsted. The centerpiece is a historic glass conservatory built in 1900, modelled on London glasshouses.

The gardens run special activities for children during certain periods, and families can attend workshops and classes. In September, children aged 12 and under visit free.
