The University of Texas at Austin Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center is the Botanic Garden of Texas. We inspire the conservation of native plants through our internationally recognized gardens, education and outreach programs. We also run Native Plants of North America, a comprehensive resource for native plant information. We welcome hundreds of thousands of people annually - from across Austin, the state and the world - to explore our gardens, participate in our programs, and discover the joy of native plants and the ecosystems they support.
