he Michigan
State University Horticultural Demonstration gardens surround
the Plant and Soil Sciences Building and its teaching
greenhouses. The Department of Horticulture constructed the
gardens to provide a place for students and visitors to learn
about gardening and be inspired by beautiful plants. These
display and teaching gardens provide enjoyment and learning
for everyone.
Annuals,
perennials, roses,
herbs,
vegetables,
trees, and
shrubs growing in the garden illustrate
horticulture -- the art and science of gardening.
There are six different gardens, each with its own distinct
purpose, that make up this seven and one-half acre display
garden: perennial garden, annual trial garden, foyer garden,
rose garden, children's garden, and idea garden.
The gardens are located on the corner of Wilson and Bogue
streets on the campus of Michigan State University in East
Lansing.
