Are UBC Botanical Garden and Nitobe Memorial Garden in the same place?
They are both operated by UBC, but they occupy different parts of the Vancouver campus. The main botanical garden is at 6804 SW Marine Drive, while Nitobe Memorial Garden is closer to the university's central academic area.
What plant collections can visitors see at UBC Botanical Garden?
The garden includes Asian temperate collections, native British Columbia plants and the David C. Lam Asian Garden. Its living collections cover roughly 90 hectares on UBC's Point Grey campus.
How much time should I allow for UBC Botanical Garden?
Allow at least two hours for the main paths and longer if you add the Greenheart TreeWalk. A combined visit with Nitobe Memorial Garden can comfortably occupy half a day because the two gardens are not adjacent.
