Fort Worth Botanic Garden

Enjoy the captivating beauty of this 120-acre treasure, one of the largest centers for botanical exploration and discovery in the United States. Located in the heart of the Fort Worth Cultural District, just minutes from downtown, we offer stunning garden views, exciting exhibits, gift shops, a cafe and more. Spend the day strolling through the Japanese Garden with its koi-filled pools, sculpted hillsides, crafted stonework and dramatic waterfalls. Nearby, visit the iconic Rose Garden, with a terraced ramp featuring paths that wind past colorful flower beds amidst a cascade down the center.

Explore, Discover, Engage

We explore the critically important world of plants, collaborate to discover the role they play in our cultural and natural environments, and engage others to conserve nature and improve the human experience.

FWBG knows that education is lifelong. We are dedicated to inspiring nature-lovers of all ages to explore the world around them, discover new interests, and engage their communities in positive change. Education at the Botanic Garden features programs for adults, children and families, and schools. We strive to introduce community members to the wonders of plants and ecology, the importance of conservation and sustainability, and social-emotional learning.
