Not the greatest botanical gardens I've ever been to that's for sure. It was more like a preserve we can walk around and see plants growing in the wild it wasn't well maintained or manicured like you would expect in a Botanical Garden. We went to the Duke botanical gardens right after and it's 1 million percent nicer. We were very disappointed.

Awesome place to walk through with a group or alone. Beautifully designed with a wide variety of plant life. Markers can be found throughout the gardens. Metal artworks are beautifully done. Calm enjoyable trails throughout. There are places to sit and rest clean public restrooms, drink vending machine and a store which has a variety of plants, stationary, books, puppets, aprons, pots, yard ordiments and so much more! There are also Pokemon gyms and stops throughout the gardens. Plenty of free parking. I love the gardens. Hope you enjoy, as I know you will!

Beautiful garden, well taken care of, with many points of interest. Kids loved the fish tanks, the giant Chess and finding tadpoles and frogs.
Shop is overpriced.
There could be a picture beside the name of the plant. Because everything is mixed together, it sometimes difficult to know what is what.

The varieties of trees here amazed. I wished I had such property belonging to me. Great work by students, researchers and whole team. I truly appreciate it

The nature trails around the garden are great, but the garden itself is a bit lacking. Expected something in-between Duke Gardens and the NC State Arboretum, but got something much different and worse in my opinion. Definitely won't be back.
