Reviews

The Arboretum State Botanical Garden of Kentucky has been featured on the websites Visit South and Destress Outdoors:

  • Most visitors come to the arboretum to enjoy its two-mile walking trail, better known as the "Walk Across Kentucky." Here you can find a living museum, with seven distinct areas each displaying the distinct plantlife from that part of the state. There are also rose gardens, wildflowers, wetlands, and much more—something to suit every gardener. – Fiona Young-Brown, Visit South
  • An extraordinary display of the floral diversity of Kentucky, this arboretum (http://www.ca.uky.edu/arboretum) is an absolute treasure for the city of Lexington as well as for the state. It’s an incredible gift that awaits all who would venture here. – James DiNardo, Destress Outdoors

About The Arboretum State Botanical Garden of Kentucky

More than 100 plant-populated acres unfold behind the stone-fence entrance to The Arboretum, showing off ever-changing seasonal landscapes to visitors 365 days a year. Passing breezes dance over grassy fields and stir up aromas of 1,500 rosebush varieties as visitors meander past the gazebo and fishpond en route to the 1.85-acre Kentucky Children’s Garden, a hands-on, educational environment for 2- to 10-year-old horticulturists. After exploring the wetlands and fountains or checking out art exhibitions, gardening seminars, and other special events, visitors can set out on the two-mile Walk Across Kentucky, a paved botanical excursion through the seven native regions of the state, including the Appalachian Plateau and wild fried-chicken habitats.
