Descanso Gardens
150 acres of gardens, woodland, and chaparral may be found in Descanso Gardens. Over 750,000 people are welcomed each year by nine various themed gardens. The 40,000 camellia shrubs at Descanso are a feature and have been present in the grounds for many years. From October through March, the blossoms in the 20-acre California live oak woodland bloom. The Rosarium's 4,000 roses are in full bloom from April through December. Orange, peach, pear, pomegranate, crabapple, fruits of the species prunus, grapes, and passionfruit are just a few of the numerous fruit trees found at Descanso Gardens. The Ancient Garden, which features almost 180 plants, some endangered species, and a collection of cycads, was added last year.
Exploring the Descanso Gardens will be a sensory delight. Just a few of the gardens you'll view on your visit are the 5-acre Rose Garden, the tranquil Japanese Garden, the Camellia Collection (the biggest camellia collection in North America), Oak Forest, and California Natives. A number of unique events and programs are also held in Descanso Gardens throughout the year, including the well-liked Enchanted Forest of Light. Every day is open at Descanso Gardens (except Christmas Day). The price for general entry is $15, $11 for seniors 65 and older and students with ID, $5 for kids aged 5 to 12, and free for kids under 5.
