As a living museum with one of the most diverse plant collections in North America, the UC Botanical Garden is a dynamic destination! There is always something new to see.
If you’re coming here for the first time, we recommend planning a two-hour visit — there are more than 34 acres, nine major geographic regions, and over 10,000 kinds of plants to explore. Discover and learn more about the plant collections. Download the Garden Map and start planning your visit. We can’t wait to welcome you!
We also offer year-round programming including classes, guest speakers, guided tours, special events and family-friendly activities. Check out the calendar to find upcoming events, classes and workshops at the Garden.
