Clark Botanic Garden, Botanical garden in Roslyn Heights, New York, United States.
Clark Botanic Garden is a botanical garden on spacious grounds with thousands of plant types arranged across different sections. Visitors find specialized garden areas, two ponds, and community gardening spaces throughout the property.
A lawyer and advisor to President Franklin D. Roosevelt donated his estate in 1966, which led to the garden's creation several years later. This gift transformed the private property into a public learning place.
The garden serves as a learning place where schools and researchers come to study plants and understand their importance for people and nature.
Admission is free and the garden is open during regular hours for visitors of all ages. Paths are clearly marked and information signs help you navigate the different plant sections.
