Reviewed by: ccdeen from on May 16 2009 Best Garden There are lots of types of gardens, such as Japanese gardens, English Gardens, and more here. It is also a good place to spend the day there. Also, there are fountains. There are Coke machines throughout the park and they are inexpensive. I should come back when it is warm the next time I am in St. Louis.

Reviewed by: jenny from on Apr 03 2007 Don't waste your time Don't waste your time in St. Louis going to the Garden. It's a big rip-off. Gift shop prices are too high. Restaurant had terrible food and again, higher than other St. Louis prices. Workers were rude. I've seen better gardens in many places. There is nothing unique about the garden. It's like paying to walk through your neighbor's back yard. If you go in the summer the humidity will kill you. Save your money for a botanical garden somewhere else, like Seattle.
Reviewed by: lindaf from on Apr 02 2007 WOW! Worth the time/money My family went to the Missouri Botanical gardens the weekend of 8/5/06 and was thoroughly enchanted. The gardens were great on their own, but the glass exhibition there till October was breathtaking. The seamless combination of beautiful plants, environment and exquisit glass pieces was unbelievable. We took our 8 and 9 year old and they loved it to.
Reviewed by: A Yahoo! Contributor from on Aug 07 2006 A Must See: Chihuly Glass Exhibit This was our first time visiting the Missouri Botanical Gardens & it was fantastic! As a plant lover, I couldn't get enough of the flowers and the scenery; however, for those not as excited at looking at plants, it's definitely worth going to check out the Dale Chihuly Blown Glass exhibit. His work is so unique and each of his pieces are beautiful complements to each the different the gardens.
Reviewed by: A Yahoo! Contributor from on Jul 19 2006 Amazing! MO Botanical Garden is a definite must see. One of the top rated gardens in the US, they currently are hosting a Chihuly glass exhibit within the garden that makes a good outing even better. Lots of walking so wear comfortable shoes....
