Forming a very special part of the University of Delaware Campus, the Botanical Gardens provide an open-air classroom and laboratory where students and members of the public can admire an outstanding display of perennials, shrubs and trees and learn about the relationships between people and plants. The Botanical Gardens are divided into a series of special theme gardens including the Ecology Woods, the Herbaceous Garden, the Greenhouse Garden, the Native Garden, the Wetlands and more. Visitors can download a map of the gardens for self-guided walks and guided tours can be arranged for groups of 10 or more. There is something to see all year round and the gardens are a riot of color in summer.
