Our Botanical Gardens Expert Says:
The Atlanta Botanical Garden contains indoor as well as outdoor displays; featured are local plants and flowers, but also flora from specific regions and climates from around the world. These botanical exhibits are housed in specially-designed and heavily-regulated greenhouses, so as to mimic the climates of, for example, Southeast Asia or the Tropics. The rose garden features heirloom varieties from Western Europe, such as Souvenir de la Malmaison and Rêve d'Or. It's open year-round, but closed on Mondays.
