Savannah Botanical Gardens

We were surprised that the grounds were open without any volunteers. We walked through leisurely and took many photos before we were drenched in sweat. Lovely place.

Nice little garden maintained by local gardening clubs. Featuring a house from 1840 that was built in downtown Savannah then moved to the garden. Plants are well labelled. There is a small pond with turtles including a softshell species. Free to enter (voluntary donation based) and available for wedding ceremonies.

worth the visit if you're near by and want a peaceful short walk, it is beautiful but they only keep up with the "wedding area" the childrens area was not well kept and the trail had a glass display that was completely shattered, the was also apart of the trail that we could not access because it was too overgrown. I can't blame them since it is free access so they likely don't get enough funding to keep up with the entire garden and trail.

I had a tiny bit of time to waste while visiting Savannah over the weekend and I am so happy I was close to the botanical gardens. Although still a bit early in the season for diverse blooms, I was still impressed with thr number of flowering bushes I saw. The children's garden is adorable, especially the pizza shaped garden for herbs! There is also a little free library which, as a librarian, I love to see. Truly a kindness to offer this scenic garden for free, I encourage you to visit and make a small donation. I look forward to stopping by again later in the season for more beautiful blooms!

not very big, but it's pretty. for the fact that i visited in the winter, i was pleasantly surprised to see plenty of living plants. i bet it's beautiful when all the plants are in bloom. it even had a cute little children's garden! seems decently maintained.
