Jardín Botánico de Huntington, Botanical gardens in San Marino, California, US.

The Huntington Botanical Gardens form part of the Huntington Library, an educational and research institution founded by Henry Huntington in San Marino, California. The gardens cover 120 acres and are divided into more than a dozen themed areas, among them the Desert Garden, the Japanese Garden, the Rose Garden, the Shakespeare Garden and the Chinese Garden Liu Fang Yuan. A grove of eucalyptus trees serves as an Australian Corner.

This garden was established in 1903 by Henry E. Huntington on a ranch property and grew into one of the major botanical collections. The gardens took their current form through the systematic development of specialized garden areas over many decades.

The Chinese Garden, Liu Fang Yuan (Garden of Flowing Fragrance), occupies the northern part of the property, and a grove of eucalyptus trees forms an Australian Corner. The Desert Garden was conceived by William Hertrich, the garden's curator, who gathered cacti with Henry Huntington on trips through North, Central and South America.

The grounds cover 120 acres, so plan on several hours and wear walking shoes. The themed gardens lie mostly in the northern part of the property, with the Desert Garden among the oldest collections; the eucalyptus-filled open field serves as the Australian Corner.

The property houses rare orchids, cycads, and bonsai trees that are tended by researchers and botanists. These specialized collections support global conservation programs for endangered plant species.
