Model Railroad Garden

Though a seasonal addition to the gardens, the railroad garden has over 18 trains running through it. There are over 5000 plants within the garden, placed strategically amongst the train tracks. The garden hosts mini plants and people as well to fully complete the model railway feeling.

Nature Play Garden

This garden is meant to be a multi-sensory experience that allows children to experience the beauty of nature and learn about the growing process. The play garden offers the chance to experience all five senses through the texture and colour of the plants and the sounds of the garden. This garden also holds classes for children and adults to help expand their knowledge.

Waterfall Garden

One of the most peaceful gardens in the collection, the waterfall garden allows for complete serenity. The garden has a gazebo, 15,000 types of plants, and the crown jewel of the garden is a 45 foot waterfall. On top of the waterfall, the garden has lake side views. This is the perfect place in the Chicago Botanic Garden for a relaxing afternoon.
