Shaw's Garden / Missouri Botanical Garden (Wikipedia)
The Missouri Botanical Garden is a botanical garden located at 4344 Shaw Boulevard in St. Louis, Missouri.
It is also known informally as Shaw's Garden
for founder and philanthropist Henry Shaw. Its herbarium, with more than 6.6... million specimens, is the second largest in North America, behind only that of the New York Botanical Garden.
Founded in 1859, the Missouri Botanical Garden is one of the oldest botanical institutions in the United States and a
National Historic Landmark, and is listed in the National Register of Historic Places.
The Garden is a center for botanical research and science education of international repute,
as well as an oasis in the city of St. Louis, with 79 acres (32 ha) of horticultural display.
It includes a 14-acre (5.7 ha) Japanese strolling garden named Seiwa-en;
the Climatron geodesic dome conservatory; a children's garden, including a pioneer village; a playground;
a fountain area and a water locking system, somewhat similar to the locking system at the Panama Canal;
an Osage camp; and Henry Shaw’s original 1850 estate home. It is adjacent to Tower Grove Park, another of Shaw’s legacies.
