Birmingham Botanical Gardens

Birmingham Botanical Gardens began in the early 1960s as an idea for "the biggest attraction of this type in the Southeast." The 67ac garden consists of flowers, trees and shrubs as well as a conservatory and a Japanese garden. Over 230 species of birds have been recorded when sighted on the grounds.

The grounds of the Birmingham Botanical Gardens are also home to a library of horticultural materials. Visitors are welcome to picnic on the grounds.
