Helen Fowler Library Denver Botanic Gardens Reviews

We visited here for Blossoms of light at Christmas and it was beautiful. I can't wait to go again!

Well manicured and very friendly staff. Unique and intimate concert venue.

Beautiful flowers, beautiful Park -- just wander the paths and unwind

Spectacular assortment of plants from around the world in beautiful settings.

One of the most fabulous botanical gardens I have ever seen. Flowers incredible in June.

Lots of great exhibits and gardens. I really liked getting up close to the Calder sculptures. You'll never be able to get that close to that many anywhere else.

Might have been Winter but its still a lovely place to wander round. It will be remarkable in Spring xx

Excellent attention to detail. Volunteers were friendly and knowledgeable.

Even in Winter, the well designed and thoughtfully landscaped gardens are beautiful. You could spend an entire afternoon wandering the gardens and viewing the unique plants and trees. Stop at any of the many, well-placed seating areas and watch the squirrels and rabbits play amongst the greenery.

Better than Golden Gate Park in San Francisco. Sure to please every month of the year. This is a half day event for those that wish to enjoy the experience.

Beautiful gardens, friendly staff at the guest center, decent coffee and snacks at the cafe. I've only been here twice, but I've also only visited Denver twice and it was worth it to go back on my second trip, so I think that's saying something.

The Christmas light show is amazing one of the best if not the best I have ever been to but make sure you were shoes with good grip because they can not ice the paths in the gardens so they might be iced up how ever they did sand it very well when we went

Spring shoots are popping up and this time of year is wonderfully quiet, the gift shop has some awesome jewelry and home decor. Try the chocolate ecclairs at Shoots cafe , yummy

One of the best place in denver if you are interested in plants and flower. Have variety of the plants from all over the world and have variety of the flowers. Parking will be kind of tricky if you go in weekends and holidays.

We visited this in winter daytime and were not satisfied since this place is beautiful only in summers

The variety here is amazing! The Botanic Gardens make the perfect date location, especially in these times. Since it's outside, you have plenty of space to enjoy the beauty of it all. I highly recommend coming in on a weekday if you can. Be sure to bring water though, since the fountains are currently shut down and the weather is still quite warm.

Very beautiful place, unfortunately it was not yet time for many flowers when I went, but I imagine that in the middle of spring it must be very beautiful!

Blossoms of Light is a must see experience. Absolutely beautiful!!

There is so many plants and it's really warm it feels like Florida can get so humid though but there are so many plants to observe and there was even a pyramid in between the water. There is a lot of things you can do here the wildlife is beautiful there's also a fish pond but I'm afraid that may be closed science it's really cold but it's beautiful it's the only time I've actually seen a lily pod they are so fascinating. The place is really big it feel so tropical and you can vet exhausted from all of this but inside it's a green house and they have huge plants and a little water fall as you can go down and up observing the huge plants

Amazing place. Beautiful flowers. Friendly staff. I can't wait to go back again!!

Lovely, but would be better during Spring or Summer

Nice, however you should plan your day there when they don't have a wedding going on because you will be limited to where you can go in the gardens

This is a wonderful way to spend an afternoon. We are so lucky to have these gardens in Denver.

Beautiful oasis right in the heart of Denver. ALL types of flora and so incredibly quiet and peaceful. If you stop by the cafe, be sure to get one of their infused waters - all made with fresh ingredients from the gardens :D

One of my favorite places in Denver. Absolutely beautiful!!!

Extensive walk through many different plants and flowers. There was probably a lot we didn't see. Relaxing.

The Gardens go the extra mile to make special events EXTRA special!

Everything was under construction & viewing was limited. Not impressed.

My Grand Prince & I thought it was WONDERFUL !
HE LOVES THE MOVIE COCO. It was an awesome sight upon his lil face !

Absolutely beautiful any time of year. Check online for discounts before you go. Check out the gift shop! My favorite part was a the tropical indoor area.

my face place cant wait to visit the chatfieid location

They don't rest on their laurels! Always adding new features, exhibits and plants. Great place to bring company for an afternoon. A photographer's paradise.

Great place to wander around among nature when the weather is nice.

I love this place! Upgraded to an annual pass, because every time I go something different is blooming! Well kept, great plant variety and we enjoy the art installations. A must see!

Love the Botanic Gardens. Used to live a few blocks away and found myself there often. Peaceful, relaxing, and pretty.

Beautiful, inexpensive, watch for awesome trade shows or exhibits that they offer regularly.

My family and I was visiting Denver and I thought it would be fun and educational to bring my kids to the Garden. I was actually a little nervous that my kids would get bored.

To my pleasant surprise, they were very happy and excited to see all the different plants and their descriptions.

The arrangement of the plants is amazing! There is a different species every few feet so there are different shapes and colors everywhere! I definitely recommend this garden for families.

Easy to navigate. Plenty of little nooks to set moment on silence. Well maintained. Lines at cafe moved quickly.

This place is amazing! Its the prettiest botanical garden I've been to. So much to see and its so relaxing just walking around.
If you're into gardening and plants you have to check it out. I loved it!

Lovely gardens, although a bit... dead... during the winter. Luckily, not all the exhibits are outside, and the plants in the greenhouses are still very alive and vibrant. Went for the free day and it was crowded, but not too bad (we could still find parking in the free lot and benches to sit on within the garden). I enjoyed walking around for a little over an hour. Would've spent a lot more time if I'd gone during the summer.

An amazing array of plants, flowers, trees and ever growing thing imaginable in a beautiful environment. A great way to spend the day!

Lovely even in winter lots of information and fun facts about plants all around. You see something new every time you go.

Even at this time of the year you can find beautiful plants with your walk

What a beautiful garden one of my favorite place. The atmosphere was awesome and the location was too good. Many people come here with their friends and families to have fun which seem very nice. The food courts were also nice and delivered fresh and yummy food. Must visit place.

Me and my wife had a great time at the botanical gardens! Had interesting horticulture and species from all over the world. It seemed like every blade of grass had a sign marking its scientific and common name as well as the country of origin. My personal favorite was the Japanese garden. So tranquil. This might be worth a membership if you are an artist. They have art classes to for painting and drawing the flora, but even better is that you can just come with a canvas or pad and sit wherever you like and let your creativity flow. Super cool place.

This place is ridiculously beautiful and the staff are more than friendly.

Nice gardens, but a lot smaller than I was expecting. Considering the price of admission, I was kind of disappointed that it only took about an hour to see everything.

Gorgeous place! Wonderful to walk around in even when it is super packed. Bring sunscreen and/or a parasol for the unshaded areas. The gardens have different exhibits so a repeat trip will never be the same.

Lovely place to go and relax. They have an amazing variety of well tended plants grouped in themed gardens ... Even a tropical indoor garden. Plan a few hours for your visit.

Beautiful venue with many hidden little treasures. The bonsai garden was surprising, the tropical plants amazing, and holds the first death flower I've ever seen

Great place. Wanna to visit here again in the future.

The Christmas lights they do for the holidays is so much fun and a wonderful date. Make sure you get the loaded hot chocolate!

Amazing gardens and all the employees and volunteers were kind and informative. The plants and flowers are beautiful change of scenery compared to the rest of downtown Denver.

Part of park was closed off for a wedding the two places were the main ones we wanted to visit. Also we were standing in line to get food an employee walks up and said no more food after the ones in front of us. There were no hours posted no chain closing off line. We had to leave after waiting and so did the people in line behind us. So disappointed.

Their Christmas display was very impressive. We had an excellent time

if you are lover of plants, It is really good place to visit.

We really enjoyed the visit. Looking forward to returning in the spring.

The winter lights exhibit is a great family experience.
