 The Desert Botanical Garden showcases one of the world’s most remarkable collections of arid plants, set against the striking red rock backdrop of the Papago Buttes. Home to more than 50,000 desert plants, the Garden invites visitors to explore five thematic trails that highlight conservation, desert living, the relationship between plants and people of the Sonoran Desert, and the vibrant beauty of desert wildflowers.
