I have been to the Gardens a couple of times. The flowers were very pretty. Different plants and trees were blooming. I had the opportunity to visit the Japanese garden and feed the carp/gold fish in the pond there.

Great botanic garden. Parking can be hard to find on a nice weekend afternoon, so get there before noon if possible on the weekends. Well labeled flora throughout the Gardens - which must cover 20 - 30 acres. You can walk all afternoon. On sight restaurants are conveniently located for a quick drink or bite to eat.

Gorgeous place to spend a day! Lots of flowers, the Koi Fish were awesome. The childrens farm was pretty amazing. The kids loved pretending to be farmers..

Morning was the perfect time. It was beautiful, and not too hot. We did the free parts, the Rain Forest and the Japanese Garden. Really enjoyed the differences in all of them.

Needed a place to relax and walk after lunch. Nice and well groomed, but seemingly a victim of Texas water conservation. Some areas seemed made for water, but were dry. I am from west Texas and understand, but it did make it less enjoyable.

Beautiful plants - such a peaceful atmosphere so close to the highway. Loved the rose garden - they are my favorite. The Japanese Garden is so serene - loved feeding the fish and speniding ome time meditating. The scented garden is also well worth the experience.

I am a huge fan of the outdoors, and well designed public outdoor spaces. The Botanical Garden is different from its cousin in Dallas, the Arboretum, in that it is essentially a free public space in most parts, and is located near Trinity Park, the Cultural District of Ft. Worth, the Ft. Worth Zoo, and its newest neighbor, BRIT, or... More
