I was attending school at the time of our visit. It was a very nice place. So calm and serene. They have beautiful flowers and plants of all kinds with plaques to tell all about them. They have bridges and creeks and Asian themed areas. It is clean and very well landscaped. A most enjoyable visit!

My wife and I wanted to have a relaxing day and decided to see the gardens, as we'd never been before. Very nicely laid out and saw some wonderful plants and flowers. A lot of color. Great place to relax and enjoy an afternoon walk.

I don't got to school at UNCC but discovered the gardens because I was looking for something outdoorsy, safe, and active to do while I was visiting the area for work and looking for some true beauty in the middle of strip mall-landia.

it is a joy to walk and enjoy the great plantings and variety of flowers, bushes and tress in the gardens

Shady, wooded, floral. Multiple varieties of beautiful azealias. A hidden gem. I will go again next season.

We took our summer camp there and we learned alot about plants. It was free and you could give a small donation if you wanted to. You could also by plants. This is a great place to take the kids for the afternoon.
