You receive all Denver Botanic's family/general membership benefits, including two membership cards, three single-use guest passes, and several All You Can Eat tokens to be used on the plants.

A membership to the Gardens gets you admission for an entire year to the Denver Botanic Garden, the Mordecai Children's Garden (opening in 2010), Denver Botanic Gardens at Chatfield, and more than 150 American Horticultural Society member gardens. You'll get invitations to member-only nights and opening weekends, reduced prices for separately ticketed events, and advance sales for the Summer Concert Series.

Denver Botanic is a plant and nature paradise for kids, adults, and city-dwelling man-sized butterflies. Highlights include a Japanese oasis with Ponderosa pine, bug-munching Venus flytraps, South African asparagus fern, and 175 varieties of roses. Stop by when the weather is warm to see the city's first public green roof, a garden hat that protects a building's roof from sunlight and temperature variations. The Gardens' acres of posh foliage are just as bright in winter weather, with one million lights draped in elegant designs. This Groupon gets you complimentary admission to the upcoming Trail of Lights and Blossoms of Light opening weekend celebrations. Or stop by to walk two miles of trails at the Chatfield garden, a grasslands nature preserve on the banks of Deer Creek.

Note: Your email will be shared with Denver Botanic in order for your membership to be redeemed.

Reviews

Frommer's travel guide features the Denver Botanic Gardens:

  • Twenty-three acres of outstanding outdoor and indoor gardens display plants native to the desert, plains, mountain foothills, and alpine zones. There's also a traditional Japanese garden, an herb garden, a water garden, a fragrance garden, and a garden inspired by the art of Monet. Even in the cold of winter, the dome-shaped, concrete-and-Plexiglas Tropical Conservatory houses thousands of species of tropical and subtropical plants.

Yelpers give it 4.5 stars; TripAdvisors and reviewers on Lilaguide give it four:

  • The Denver gardens are really phenomenal compared with botanic gardens in other cities. – lauren1818, Lilaguide
  • We have been to several gardens in the US and Germany and my wife and I found this very nice. A lot of terrane [sic] with many different type of plants. – RealRocketRon, TripAdvisor
  • The gardens are a peaceful sanctuary in the middle of town. It has nicely manicured gardens, a riot of plants and flowers, and an interesting collection of sculptures. It has several "corners" where you can just sit and absorb the smells – houstonturtle, TripAdvisor

Denver Botanic Gardens

The Denver Botanic Gardens’ three locations house vibrant flowers, lush vegetation, and educational activities for visitors of all ages. Native and adapted plants flourish in the York Street campus, which also houses Mordecai Children’s Garden—a 3-acre lot with alpine gardens, mountain ranges, and cool bugs. Trails cut through the Mount Goliath garden, delivering explorers to scenic vistas of the Divide peaks. In contrast to the untouched beauty of Mount Goliath, the Chatfield hub features mankind's imprint on the land. As a working farm, Chatfield makes new use of a restored dairy barn from 1918 and as well as a 19th-century schoolhouse. The farm doubles as a habitat for many bird species, and offers the rare opportunity to make eye contact with a heron.

How to Eat Vietnamese Food

If you've never eaten Vietnamese food before, you probably have a lot of questions. Here are the answers to the most common questions about Vietnamese food:

  • Q: Does Vietnamese food consist of plant, animal, or fungus substances composed of carbohydrates, water, fats, and/or proteins suitable for ingesting? A: Yes.
  • Q: How do I eat it? Should I just use the provided utensils to position the edible parts into my mouth, then chew and swallow the food, allowing the Szent-Györgyi-Krebs cycle (taking place in my cells' mitochondria) to synthesize the food into energy? A: Yes.
  • Q: Will Vietnamese food enter my bloodstream directly, clogging my blood with thick spiced prawns, or will it first be broken down physically and chemically by my body's digestive tract? A: No.
  • Q: Do I have to be in Vietnam to eat Vietnamese food? A: Yes.

Do you have to be in Vietnam to eat Vietnamese food?
