Are you a budding botanist, an enthusiastic gardener, or simply curious to learn more about Selby Gardens?

Join us on select Wednesday afternoons for an exclusive tour of the Steinwachs Family Plant Research Center. This new state-of-the-art facility combines the best of traditional and cutting-edge science. Discover how botanists document biodiversity, providing critical insights into plant evolution and distribution. In the Marieb Herbarium and the Carlyle A. Luer Spirit Laboratory, explore meticulously preserved plant specimens, each with its own story to tell. Step into the Nathalie McCulloch Research Library, a repository for thousands of holdings focused on plant science, horticulture, and ecology. Rare books and botanical prints dating back to the 1700s are housed in the Robert and Sally Arthur Rare Books Center. Fast-forward to the present and get a glimpse into the magic of DNA and molecular biology at the Marieb Laboratory, and discover the green technology and innovative sustainability features throughout the facility helping to make Selby Gardens a pioneering net-positive botanical garden.
