Awbury Arboretum, Botanical garden in Germantown, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, US.
The 56-acre grounds contain numerous gardens, groves, meadows, and ponds, featuring over 140 species of trees across the landscaped property.
The Cope family, prominent Quaker merchants, established this estate in 1852 and commissioned landscape architect William Saunders to design the gardens in 1870.
The gardens reflect the English romantic style with precise placement of trees, open spaces, and walking paths connecting different sections of the property.
The arboretum welcomes visitors every day from sunrise to sunset without admission fees, with parking available behind the Francis Cope House.
The property includes AdventureWoods, a natural materials playground, and a 16-acre farm where visitors can participate in goat walking activities.
