Wrigley Botanical Gardens, Botanical garden in Avalon Canyon, Santa Catalina Island, US.

The Wrigley Memorial and Botanical Gardens spans 38 acres near Avalon, featuring local stone construction and collections of native Channel Islands plants.

William Wrigley Jr, who purchased most of Catalina Island in 1919, was initially interred in the memorial tower before relocation to Forest Lawn Cemetery.

The memorial incorporates materials from the region, including blue flagstone from Little Harbor and tiles produced at the Catalina Pottery plant between 1927-1937.

Visitors can access the gardens through a 30-minute walk from downtown Avalon or by using local transportation services like COAST, taxis, and golf carts.

The gardens maintain six plant species found exclusively on Catalina Island, including the Catalina Ironwood, contributing to regional conservation efforts.
