University of Delaware Botanic Gardens, Botanical garden at University of Delaware in Newark, United States.

The gardens contain over 3,000 species of perennials, shrubs, and trees spread across multiple themed sections throughout the university campus grounds.

The original garden in front of Townsend Hall began in the mid-1960s through a donation from Emily Clark Diffenback, leading to its designation as Clark Garden.

The gardens function as an educational center where students and faculty conduct research on plant biology, horticulture, and environmental sciences.

The botanical gardens remain open daily from sunrise to sunset without admission charges, featuring mowed grass paths throughout the different garden areas.

The Lepidoptera Trail includes specialized signage for identifying caterpillars and their preferred foliage while supporting research on local butterfly populations.
