I love the handmade gift items for sale now in the Western Colorado Botanical Gardens gift shop. From hand painted planters, clocks, signs, and plaques to hand made ornaments and jewelry. The Butterflies and flowers brought me back to warm memories. Get in there before Christmas.

Deserves a mountain more of community support and funding. Its like visiting a secret paradise full of positivity and life. Breath in whats missing in the concrete clad, rushing obligations of the daily drone. Grown slowly because of a fews dedication and love of natures magic. Love this place, please

Great botanical gardens! Amazing place to visit whether youre local or visiting! Many large metropolitan cities have botanical gardens which cant match this! Large indoor greenhouse featuring butterflies. Outdoor paths featuring local plant species, artwork, and historical information about the Riverwalk!!! Locals & visitors should not miss this Grand Junction gem!

Such a beautiful place the staff are very kind staff.Today I was able to sign up for an annual membership plus one and only spent 45 dollars and gives me access to over 300 botanicals gardens across the US. It was a really nice place I really enjoyed seeing the beautiful turtle who sought in the area where the butterflies were if you’re looking for a beautiful place and some quiet time with a tiny bit of humidity this is the place to be.

Rude staff, 2 butterflies, Gardens are over grown and there is nothing unique about the plants. Very much is a waste of money. Brings shame to the other Botanic Gardens

Located at the end of 7th Street it is part of Grand Junctions Riverfront Complex. It has plenty of free parking and is accessible to the Riverfront Bicycle Trail System. Lots of public events happen here and in the immediate area. It is a work-in- progress that gets better all the time. Well worth fequeqnt visits.

Has potential of being amazing. Stagnant water everywhere. Needs lots of maintenance. Ponds were fun. Succulent garden gave us good ideas for our own yard.

Apparently your drivers think its ok to drive around town with an uncovered trailer flinging tree branches all over the place. Then when I honk to let them know how stupid and dangerous they are, and they flip me off... is this the precident you set for your workers? My garden will now be free of your plants
