Mark the changing seasons by your visits to Red Butte Garden.  Enjoy the flowering of 150,000 bulbs crabapples, magnolias, and hawthorns in early Spring, to be closely followed by stunning displays of wildflowers in May, roses in June, an ever-changing kaleidoscope of flowering plants through the summer, dazzling ornamental grasses in the fall, and the quiet blanketing of the Garden with snow throughout the Winter.

One of Red Butte Garden’s most attractive features is its award winning Terrace Gardens, which contain Herb, Medicinal and Fragrance gardens where visitors can bathe in the sensory glow of lilac, mock orange and lavender as well as the pungent, spicy smells of the culinary and decorative herbs.  Enjoy also the new Rose Garden, Four Seasons Garden, Creekside Gardens, Water Pavilion, and waterfalls.

If you have little ones with you, be sure not to miss the Children’s Garden with its Canyon Waterfall, Butterfly Walk, Em’s Sprout House, sandbox, and snake-squirting water fountain.

Red Butte Garden & Arboretum’s Orangerie offers a stunning view of the Salt Lake Valley and is available to rent for that very special occasion.

Perhaps nowhere in the region does the landscape create the vast pleasures of sight and smell as at Red Butte Garden & Arboretum.

Tram tours are available from May through September, 10 am to noon daily.  Thursday evening walking tours during May, June and September give visitors an intimate interpretive experience.

Please call for hours and tour information.
